Finally I've found someone who experienced a femur fracture during THR. 6 months ago my left femur fractured during surgery and the surgeon used a wire "zip tie" around the femur. I've been suffering with continual pain in my thigh (day and night) along with a strange taste/breath essence since surgery; severe fatigue; blurred vision and fogginess. All CTs show the hip is in place and no clear problem. Because of my continued issues and inability to get a diagnosis (so many doctors including immunologist/allergist), I've sent blood samples to Germany (MELISA) and learned I'm highly allergic to Nickel. I'm seeing a new surgeon to get learn what kind of test is available to view the tissue in my leg and see if the wire can be removed since I'm certain it is the cause of my pain and other problems. Also, I've since had elbow surgery to fix a pinched "ulnar nerve" in my right arm with numbness down my arm and fingers (from surgery). I'm not sure what kind of MRI I'll get since I have the new hip but surely there's some way to see what's inside because I cannot live like this anymore.
