Hip pain directly on hip bone

So you know I fell and it took 8 months to get anyone to stop gaslighting me and discover I have 2 tears in my hip labrum. As I'm not an athlete, and I'm 70 and female, yeah, all in my head I guess.

I am scheduled to drive 300+ miles Monday/Tuesday to see a really good hip surgeon for a replacement at Mayo in Jacksonville! Yeah! (It took so long to dx me, I ended up with a flattened ball of my hip and arthritis.) Hip replacement is an easier surgery than a labrum repair tho so it is whst it is.

I'm telling you this because my symptoms sound a lot like yours. Walking, sitting painful esp walking after sitting. Bed is the only relief but that destroys the rest of your muscles and body and bone density even.

I'm just putting that on the table for you as a consideration. Wish me luck with my right gas pedal hip driving 7 hrs each way alone at 70. We do what we've got to do. But I've waited several months for this appointment so I'm very excited to go meet the Mayo surgeon and hope he's willing to do the surgery because of other medical issues. I can't live with this pain anymore!
My best.

Thank you for your comments... I know exactly what you mean about driving a long time with a right leg/hip problems... I hope to find some specialist help
