I also think it is a great idea just to tell potential employers that I needed to take some personal time. Instead of the fracture thing. I always have been an upfront and honest person but I feel this is really hurting my chances of getting a job.

Hope the rehab going soon and that it goes well!!
Yeah, sometimes being too honest like that does more harm than good! Your intentions are good but most employers these days think more about the bottom line than anything. An applicant mentioning anything related to a medical condition brings thoughts of potential loss in their heads. AND they cannot ask you about anything like that - that's a big no no!!
Praying that something works out for you soon!
