Exhausted

I am severely exhausted these days. I am getting little sleep due to insomnia and when I do finally dose off it's time to get up. I find it easier to fall asleep between 1pm and 5pm but I can't do that and I have no reason to justify why my system is suddenly flipping a switch and acting like belongs on another time zone. It's so frustrating.

Another symptom I cannot get rid of is this incessant hip pain. It started over 4 weeks ago and it gets better then worse without any pattern. It hurts more if I sit too long and then get up but if I am active and moving, the pain is nearly gone. I have tried taking breaks from working out to see if it improves but it does not and my lower back has started to suffer because I find myself compensating for the hip pain by trying to put my weight on my left leg to get up. My left knee is also starting to ache. I hope I don't have rheumatoid arthritis. My sister has it and it sounds very painful. I just don't want to go to the doctor. I know they'll suggest an MRI and I cannot afford to the deductible for an MRI. The last time I had one I had to use a payment plan to pay off $500 dollars for the MRI.
