aplastic anemia and sudden severe hip pain

Has anyone else ever experienced sudden onset of severe hip pain with aplastic anemia? I have had right hip pain that started about 2-3 months ago but has gotten really bad over the last 3 weeks. I can't sleep on my right side.It is waking me up at night.I can't stand the seatbelt hitting the pelvic/hip bone. I constantly have to shift my position sitting.I have not execised or had any trauma that could have caused this.I have had an enlarged right lymph node for 6 months in my groin but had a PET scan that was negative .Got results today. Any one ever heard of avascular necosis in aplastic anemia? I have pain over the iliac area, deep inside the trochanter and the groin and behind the right knee at times.
I have had severe aplastic anemia since 4/2009 with partial remission. Labs are stable.
Would love any thoughts. Thanks,Ellen
