Not sure where to post this


   I just posted this in the undiagnosed forum but after noticing that it is more for  flu's and such I thought maybe it would go better here.
                
         For the past 2 years I've been having terrible leg and hip pain.  I have been to the Rhumatologist for so mant blood tests and they have ruled out basically everything they could and what that specialist would treat.
      Today I got  an MRI which confuses me since the pain is in my legs and hips, but they said they were trying to rule out everything they could.  I feel like no one is taking me seriously, they said my MRI will probably be fine and while I defenitly want it to be when they say that I feel like they think I'm nutz.
         Only on ocassion will anyone be nice enough to help me with my pain and while I appriciate it when it happens but I'm afraid to take them because I dont know when I'll get them next.  It was the same story today, my Doctor wouldnt give me anything and although I have 2 left at home I'm trying to save them for a really bad day.
They make me feel like I'm making everything up to get pain medication and make me feel like a drug addict.  
I'm starting to feel like maybe I am just going nutz and maybe the pain really isnt real. But then I can barely even walk right and think how could I be imagining it?

I just dont know what to think or what could be wrong with me.  Has anyone ever had these symptoms?
Were they able to find what was wrong?

Please Help...

Hello Dear,
Be patient and hope for the best.The MRI would ascertain the cause of your pain.You should try yoga and back extension exercises apart from the medications.You should consult a physical therapist for pain management.Also try not to take stress and do not get anxious about your complaint.

I have tried Ti Chi when I am able because it requires less body strain than yoga but perhaps its time to give it a try.  
Physical therapy always seemed to cause more pain and I could not tolerate it for mote than a month, but maybe its the type of physical therapist that can matter and not physical Therapy in general.

Thank you foe the good advice, I'll give them a try:)
