Hip bone pain questions & mets?

Hi ladies-

I don't post often but do lurk to check in once in a while.
When I was initially diagnosed with stage T1MIC (DCIS with less than 1mm of a microinvation) bc in Febuary 08', my oncologist ordered a baseline CT scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis and all was normal. I also had a baseline bone scan which was normal. I have had repeat CT scans a year ago and had my last bone scan in March of 09' for other aches and pains, they were all normal. I know before having BC, I would have dismissed many of my aches and pains but not anymore however, I try to wait it out before I cry wolf in a manner of speaking.


This is my worst and latest saga:
I need advice on some pain that I have been feeling in my entire left hip area. The pain started shortly after I started doing yoga (I did hip stretches to open the hips) simutaneously I also started working out on a weight machine that require pulling and pushing of weight that work out your back end and hips etc. Now for the past 4-5 weeks I have had front hip, back hip, joint & socket, rear end area, upper leg pain the radiates with sensations of pulling, burning, shooting, tingeling, throbbing, to just plain pain. The intensity of the pain varies. Any type of motion/activity such as walking & standing relieve the pain. Any type of inactivity such as sitting & especially laying down intensify the pain dramatically. I started physical therapy but is not helping and the therapist tells me that I feel tight in my hip area. I'm taking some herbal anti-inflammaratories(suggested by my naturalpath) and at times Motrin which only help moderately. When googleing I learned that there can be soooo many causes of hip pain but at this point I am very nervous and the fear of mets is starting to consume me. Can anyone offer advice on whether or not this sounds like bone mets?
Thank for reading my post, this forum has been my lifeline many times and I have learned so much through your posts.
