@mrsbv @hopeful33250 thanks to both of you.

I am seeing a specialist next week. The ER doctor actually conferred with him about my situation. I looked him up and he has excellent credentials, so I am looking forward to meeting with him and finding out what he has to say about my fracture. The ER doctor made very little of it but when I googled it (Nondisplaced fracture of greater trochanter of left femur) it sounded more serious than he indicated.
I really hate being dependent, I tend to be a very self-sufficient type of person. I hate pain too, and it is painful.
