The shooting pains might be sciatica, also.  I recommend looking into a procedure called VaxD, which can help

The hip fracture could play a role. It probably developed asymmetrically over time. I would suggest a chiropractic checkup to evaluate the spine and pelvis. The PT was a fine place to start, but since it's not working, the next stop is a chiropractor's office.
