I have had CLL for 8 years. I started having pain in my right hip going to the back of my knee about a month ago and has progressively gotten worse. Now it’s so bad that I can’t get comfortable at all. I have some hydrocodon 325. Is it ok to take 2 tabs?

You already taking higher dose only. taking more than 80 mg per day cause side effects in few patients. It may cause allergic reaction or depression or QT prolongation or interactions with many drugs etc. Please consult your treating doctor he will examine and treat you with alternate medicine to ease symptoms.
