Dr never give me a call even A simple one like ask me how am I doing?

Hello DreamerLL,
I am very sorry to see you going through such hell.

Please be strong and focus on the surgery and then full recovery. What happened is done already, but you can try to make a positive difference by carefully planning so you achieve the full recovery. Take tragedies also as the opportunities to learn and be stronger and more cautious for the future endeavors.

Did the doctor or the doctor's office communicate with you at all? via email the least?

Dream, how was your progress during the actual consolidation phase? Did you have any delays or slow growth? Did you eat calories, take calcium, etc?

Hi Dreamer
Did your leg breaking have anything to do with the problems styde nail was recalled for?

Edit Post

Worst part is that this will likely mean another internal nail and yet another nail removal...

Hope you are doing and feeling better with the circumstances in mind DreamerLL.

From the X-Ray image it looks like the breakage occurred exactly the same place as Programdude who also lengthened ~7.8 cm or 3 inches on the femur:

In Programdudes thread a guy made a post saying Paley had a similar experience with another patient described as the exact same position, but in this case it was during lengthening:

Quote from: DoingItForMe on October 12, 2015, 05:12:11 AMDr. Paley had warned me to immediately contact him if I felt any constant sharp pains in a specific spot on the femur. It usually is a sign of a fracture, because it had happened to a former patient of his. That patient felt a sharp pain in a specific part, right where the bottom of the rod touched the femur. And then after lengthening the internal rod further, it snapped the leg. From my research online, it appears that stress fracture occur when you apply too much stress on the bone, which causes the bone to be reabsorbed into the body, not resting the bone enough to let to rebuild
It seems like that area, right above the lengthening spot in the femur is vulnerable to stresses. I am guessing you must have had a stress fracture in that area which built up and finally just gave in. The fact that it occurred in bed after waking up is most strange. Especially so soon after nail and rod removal. Perhaps a fracture occurred as a consequence of the removal, or maybe it was already there and wasn’t detected prior to the removal? Perhaps someone with medical education can shed some light on this.

Programdude seems to have had a good recovery, so there is good hope you just need to stay patient.

I am guessing the muscles are still tight even after one year. The tight muscles keep putting pressure on the fragile/immature bones, that's why the bone was broken in the bed after waking up.

Sorry if I sound like a bad person… it’s just hard to believe someone could have such bad fracture by simply sleeping in bed… especially when several people asked for the doctor’s name but DreamerLL still didn’t say it for some reasons.
