[QUOTE="ann34+, post: 939321, member: 94348"] A fall is definitely not a short term problem, it is anything but if it results in a hip fracture. Apart from the experience itself (of waiting for 2 ambulances which never arrived - diverted due to drunken fracas - and laying waiting for hours in a weekend A and E while everyone is rushing round dealing with bigger emergencies - there was a cocaine overdose and a man running with blood from stab wounds, and hordes of police milling around - by the time i had been processed my allotted surgeon had gone off shift) there is the immense shock to the body which takes months to get over, it is difficult to explain, but it is actually a physical shock, and the healing is longer and the disablement is a shock also. And the longer term consequences. Also i think the more recent research quoted showed there seem to be many possible factors involved and that things re bone problems are rather complex. [/QUOTE]
