So, I’ve been having some on-again, off-again pain in my hips. It has been infrequent enough that I haven’t been overly concerned, but I eventually did go to the doctor to have things checked, in case of - I dunno, bone cancer or sumat. My doctor, who is a sympathetic but no-nonsense woman, gave me a thorough check and declared that I am in perfect health, no problems in my hips, no problems with my spine, etc. She thinks the pain is actually caused by radiating back pain. Which is, in turn, caused by stress. This seems to tally with my experience. In fact, I’ve noticed a marked correlation between certain stressful events (and people) and the pain. I find myself unable to engage in heated argument for any extended period as I will invariably be struck down by shooting pain in either my left or right hip. That’s right - you heard me correctly - I literally find these arguments to be A GIANT PAIN IN THE ASS!
