Hello @faith123 and welcome to Mayo Connect. I'm sorry to hear that you are still having difficulty since your hip fracture last year. I can understand your concern. Has your doctor offered any opinions or comments on this yet? Please share with us what treatments you have had for the fracture. Perhaps those in our Mayo Connect community might be able to help you with your question if you will let us know if you had surgery, physical therapy, etc. We look forward to getting to know you!
