Bursitis & Fibromyalgia
Since I've had Fibromyalgia, I have constant bursitis in my greater trocanter (hip bursa) as well as a constant inflammation of my SI joints.
I receive shots in my hips every few months, sometimes monthly. I do the exercises given to me by my DO, however, I have only short term relief from the shots. I apply ice. I still have the bursitis and it won't go away.
I never had any hip injuries prior or since to cause bursitis.
Does anyone else have recurrent bursitis with their Fibromyalgia?

You bet. I had bursitis or tendinitis or whatever in both my greater trocanter (all over the place) and SI joints. I treated it with ultrasound and got about 80% improvement with pain at rest and more function. You can buy a machine off the internet for less that $250.
