Hey Ian, don't know if you have had your fusion yet, but i had a similar injury and a fusion did help. I feel through our attic, landed on the concrete garage floor, shattered my heel. Again, the surgeon quit counting at 25 pieces. After is was still in pain and a boot after 9 months, i had the fusion. My hip was sore for a while (where they took the bone), but the surgery is was definitely successful. I still have pain and lack of movement, but i can walk. Dr. said it would take at least 2 years to get back to "normal".....whatever that is going to be. Vicki
