Wow, Bluetree! I am seriously stupid!Here I am thinking that the 44cm is right for my height and now learn that you're 2" shorter than me and use a frame that's 3cm longer than mine!
I am now convinced the best thing that I can do for myself is to get a proper fitting. Kali was kind enough to recommend a place about 30 miles from where I live, so I am just going to do it! If my current bike is the wrong size, then I will simply sell it and buy a bike that is properly fitted for me. I just can't enjoy my ride when I'm in physical discomfort. Perhaps the bike shop that fits me will kindly purchase my bike!
I just keep on learning......and thank you all for the wonderful suggestions.

Just to chime in on getting the proper fit, I just got measured. I am 5'2" and I need a 51cm Trek Pilot. I tried one out just to make sure (since technically I am between sizes and could get a 47cm) and it was fine for me.
You should never stop learning: :
