joint pain in both hips......

Hello......my name is Lisa I am 39 and back in October 2013 I got diagnosed with bursitis in my right hip.....I got a shot of some sort lol and have not had any problems since. I am now starting to feel the stinging and burning of the bursitis again (especially when I sleep.....I am a right side sleeper) but it is now creeping into everyday life so I am going to be calling my DR for another shot.

But I am now starting to feel the same pain in my left hip (but not near as bad).....is it possible to have bursitis in both hips at the same time or is there maybe something else going on? I am also losing large amounts of hair.....it comes out only when I shower. It comes out in large clumps and this has been going on for a while now.....I am Bipolar and I take Abilify, Zoloft, Topamax (& Klonopin PRN) I have been on this regimen for about 2 or 3 years now.....

Any insight anyone can give is greatly appreciated!!! It is just getting so hard to move and even sit still for very long periods of time.....I hurt so bad :(

Thanks in advance!!
Lisa

thanks for your reply!! I plan on calling my Orthopedic Dr first thing in the AM to get an appt and I am hoping he will either start some blood work or refer me to someone who can!!!

Thanks again!!

I would find a good orthopedic doctor in your area and tell all symptoms and make sure you get full MRI of back neck and brain. Hope this helps. Oh also a good blood work up I mean a wide range of things
