Here's a rephrased version that meets your criteria: I just got my x-ray results showing a broken bone. Is surgery the only way to fix this or are there other options? Really worried about what comes next. This keeps it natural, drops formalities, and focuses on the concern without sounding robotic.

It's understandable to be worried when you hear about a broken bone. Surgery isn't always the only option, and many fractures can be treated with less invasive methods. Your doctor will consider the type of fracture, its location, and your overall health when determining the best treatment plan.
