Hip pain while laying down trying to sleep

Has anyone else ever experienced this horrid problem.  I have Fibro was diagnosed 5yrs ago but have had pain since a kid.  Some night when trying to sleep I will get this horrid burning dull ache in the hip im not laying on so Ill switch to the other side and the other hip will start to hurt,,eventually they both start to hurt and I end up in odd positions trying to get comfortable.  Also when I get this I will have cold sweats Ill be really cold but sweaty.  Im wondering if it could be the weather change since it was really cold in my house this morning or what the deal is.  Has anyone else had this problem.  If so I would love to hear about it,,what it could be and how you deal with it.  Any suggestions or feedback would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks Rae

Yes it is....have you had the skin burning yet?  That was one of my first symptoms.  I haven't had it in a couple of years.  It was so bad that when I would go to my dr. appt. my doctor could not touch my lower back to put the tape measure on me.  I'm so glad that symptom is gone. The hips were my second symptom and it has NEVER gone away or let up.  They constantly hurt.  Have you had your bones hurt yet?  My leg bones hurt so bad sometimes it feels like they are breaking.  I can't cross my legs, to put any kind of pressure on my shin bone feels like they are going to snap any minute.

Hey girl....yes, this happens to me also, sometimes I try to roll over and I can feel the tendons, they feel like they are scraping against my hip bone which stops me in my tracks and I have to catch my breath before I can continue to roll over.  I really thought that once I lost weight my pain would decrease, that is not so.  The pain I have in my hips feels like someone took them out of socket, added sand to the ball joints and put them back into place with fire added to it.  I have also been breaking out in cold sweats but I haven't paid attention to what pain it might be associated with it.  When I get my dizzy spells I sweat so bad though.  Like I said, I can be sitting down in the a/c and they happen.  
Sorry I don't have any answers on how I deal with it.  I just take it in stride, or try to.
