camyam,
That's good news that its not a fracture! Not great that you have some osteoarthritis, but that's not unusual once you hit 40 ish. Usually you start to show some signs of wear and tear... a little earlier, even, in my experience if you ride horses all your life or other fun things!

I've had xray technicians redo xrays on me before because they are *sure* their machines have malfunctioned when in fact that's just what my joints look like! LOL!!

I hope you start to get around easier and the pain subsides!
