Couple decades ago I split my femur in half. Docs put a metal rod down the middle and had the PTs getting me on my feet the next day. It was not pleasant. After a couple days they sent me to a rehab facility for a week, then home with a walker which they replaced with a cane as soon as I was stable enough.

It took a while but I fully recovered. I'm not sure how relevant this is since the metal bore a lot of the load; I'm a little worried that may cause me problems eventually.
