Got fired yesterday and my babysitter (supposed to be my friend) calls me and tells me I owe her more $$ After every thing I have done for her, paid her vacation paid her sick days, gave her my son's hand me downs for her grandson who she had custody of to help her out I know she can't afford to go get clothes for that kid, and other of her grand kids.

Mia, usually I get hip pain if I'm in a PFD flare. IC usually brings on different symptoms. Stress is like the WORST. We're here to support you, take a deep breath and try and relax. Life is just stressful - IC, and all that goes along with that, makes it worse. I know.
Mia, I thought my hip and thighs were hurting because of IC too; well today I found out the I have spur on my hip. Got to the point I could not even lay on my side because of it. I hope you get it check out just to make sure that it is IC pain and not something else.
Sorry to hear about you losing your job. I hope you are able to find a better one.
I get hip pain too, my PT works it out when I go. If I can explain it right, there is a set of pelvic floor muscles that connect to the hip area. Mine flares really bad especially at night, a hot bath, heating pad, stretching and getting off my feet and putting them up, are the only things that really work for me. I recently started a muscle relaxant, Skelaxin which seems to be taking the edge off the pain too. It is one of those pains that drive you crazy, so I feel for you.
I am sorry to hear about your job and your inconsiderate babysitter. I hope you find better of both
