I have had a very nagging pain in my R upper outer thigh now for several years, never had anything diagnostic. I think it is directly relational to what kind of chair I sit on or whether I sit with my left leg up under my right leg. My minivan seat is deeper than my husbands car and it hurts more in my car. I also think that the more it hurts the more pins and needles feeling I have in my lower leg. So tomorrow I do an MRI!

Pain + pins and needles are very suspicious of a pinched nerve somewhere, but I guess you already know that.
Good luck with the MRI. Let's hope it's something simple causing your discomfort.

Doyd, I hope they can help you fix this. One tip, wear your most frequently-worn shoes to the follow-up appt. and make a point of showing them to the doc. Shoes can make an enormous difference in your entire bone system.
Let us know if you hear the techs shriek or anything.

I have had many MRIs of the brain and spine and did OK. I don't ever want to have another MRI of the hip!!!!! For the brian they let you use that wonderful little wedge beneath your knees. I never knew the difference ti would make. That was the longest 45 minutes of my life. By the end I had no feeling at all in my toes. I really appreciated the care and time the tech took with me to make sure first that I could bend my knees until I had feeling back and then sit long enought before standing. I should get the results late tomorrow or Thursday. I really didn't think it had anything to do with my sciatic neve because I don't have any pain back in my lower butt or down my leg. It all stems from mid lateral thigh on down. But it didn't take long for my sciatic nerve area to be really painful then down my leg.
