Hi i have been getting the same pain for last two years and neurologist / pain specialist told me i have L4-L5 damage where the sciatic nerve is getting pinched in this area which runs downthrough my buttocks and down my legs making my feet numb i get 3 monthly facet joint steroidal injectionals in the L4L5 area which helps alot but weight loss helps too. I was on oxycontin, gabapentin, endone,and many other muscle relaxants for two years which i am slowly reducing . The pain at night was unbelievable the worst ever i was getting no sleep and begging my hubby to help me end it all but it may take a good doctor to find your problem area hope they do. I also had hip bursitis both hip which makes it impossible to sleep on your side good luck
