What Does Pain In The Legs And Hips Indicate?

I get pain on my sides; sometimes it can last a week or so and then go away for maybe a week or two and then will come back again on the other side. And the funny thing is I also get the same pain in my leg up to my hip. I have been living on Advil everyday for at least a year.Doctor has no clue what it is.Sometimes when I get the pain in my side it feels like someone is squeezing thru my rib cage and then when it comes into my leg it feels like someone has punched me a thousand times over and over. The pain can be extreme at times. Have you ever heard of anything like this before? Any help would be great. Thanks
