Pain on outer thigh

Pain on outer thigh

For the past 5 months I have had a permanent pain on my outer thigh.  It feels exactly like an elastic band being pulled/stretched to its limits.  I am going for an EMG (nerve test) on Wednesday, 12/4/06.  My biggest problem is sleeping.  During the day I am aware of the pain but it seems bearable when I am busy.  At night when I need to sleep I feel I am going out of my mind with the pain and lack of sleep.  I have no other symptoms.  I am fit, healthy and slightly overweight.  Do not smoke and drink in moderation.  I know it is not DVT as I already have DVT and take Warfarin to keep my blood thin.  Is there anyone out there who can shed some light please?

Had an EMG - neurologist found nerve being p[inched but says that pain does not come from the pinched nerve.  He thinks it is something else.  Specialist seems to think it is from my hip.  I have chronic bursitis in my hip.  Please help someone.
