sciatic-nerve pain-2nd post

I am just wondering if anyone has any knowledge on this. Any help would be appriciated. I have had chronic bilateral hip bursitus for 5 yrs now. I also have slight displasia as well. Since my last pregnancy 3 yrs ago I have sciatic-nerve pain as well. Needless to say I don't exactly live a pain free life. I was actually scheduled for surgery to help with the bursutis but found out I was pregnant (now 11 weeks pg). So, I can't have the surgery and I have already had every treatment under the sun for these problems in the past,from physical therapy to injections with little to no success. My problem is (besides the obvious!) that about a week ago my sciatic-nerve pain and hip pain has increased to a unbearable level. I was expecting the pain to increase during pregnancy but this is really bad. I can hardly walk and sitting for more then a couple minutes is torture as well. All I can seem to do is lay down. I have an appointment with my ob doc next week about this but I would like all the extra knowledge I can get. My problem is unique compared to most sciatic-nerve sufferers during pregnancy because of all the extra problems. At least I would think so. I would like to know if treatment for this pain should be more extensive then a normal sciatic-nerve treatment. Should I be on bed rest? Shoule I be working? What can I do to help with the pain? I sure hope someone out there has some valid advice. I would really appriciate it! Thanks!
