    Quit work? Rest alot at home?
    You could see a physio and see if they are able to strap it. Or perhaps a chiro. Some hip pain can be due to your pelvis being out of line.

    I wish I could quit work, but we've just got no cash behind us so I need to stay working till my pay after Christmas (we'll hit struggle street from that date but it'll have to do) and I really do try to rest during the day before work, but the only rest I get atm is when Master W is sleeping (his favourite thing atm to do is run around the house and expect you to chase him - which is cute, except when I'm hurting)
    The physio idea is a good idea, I think I might have to see how much is covered on your PHI

    Thanks Taurean, I might have to investigate the belly bands. I've got long pillows which I find more comfy to sleep like I'm cuddling someone, so I think I may just have to try using that between my legs instead of downwards

    And no more lifting those heavy tables at work.

    I've been having chiro and massage and it took a few weeks for me to get results, but now I can actually walk.

    I've also found ice packs to be more effective than heat. Just make sure you do some gentle stretching, move around a little afterwards.
