FWIW your experience echoes mine exactly.
Moving the saddle forward dramatically reduced the pressure, nose up helped too, felt like the middle is "holding" me back (well supporting), which felt strange but after a while I forget it's supporting me and just concentrate on riding (saddle disappearing).

I read practically this whole thread at work yesterday, ready on adjustments on the way home.
1) Moved saddle forward. This relieved the pressure from my inner thighs.
This was better, but I didn't really feel comfortable unless I was in the drops, so I figured the best way to emulate this while I'm on the hoods was to:
2) Tilt the nose up
This was a far more comfortable position. Sit-bones still hurt, but having read what you all have to say this is to be expected. Definitely looking forward to
Thanks again for your help and patience, slowly but surely getting there!
