I do have a question about range of motion. Did you find your range of motion is now limited? My range of motion is now severly limited and I am wondering if it will come back. I have finally started physical therapy and he says that my muscles have tightened up alot. My doctor also will not let me walk for the first 12 weeks and then after that I can put 33% of my weight on my hip for 4 weeks. Then I get to put 67% of my weight for another 4 weeks. Then full weight-bearing. I am a little concerned about the percentages.
