in pain
For me "sisters in pain" sounds very much like the italian "sorelle di pena". I am positive that this very phrase has been been used before with this very meaning. As for the second part of the title.. let me think about it ;).

sisterhood of pain
Sisters in pain sounds ambiguous to me I prefer sisterhood OF pain, meaning women who go through pain together and support each other through it.
