Bill,

This happened to me. I had a fibula fracture that did not heal for 2 1/2 years

and it was quite painful. Actually the plate they put in my leg broke and then

the bone would never grow back together. I had to wear a bone growth stimulator

for 12 hours (at night) and after ANOTHER surgery to re-plate it, it finally

healed. Shwew. I had four surgeries before it was all over!

Can you believe they told me I shouldn't be having pain and tried to deny me any

pain medication! My leg would swell to baseball size (or bigger)every day.

Finally they re-cast it and then I had to wear a boot for the next year.

If they ask you to wear a bone growth stimulator and your insurance won't pay

for it (its close to $10,000) let me know. I have one that I obviously can't use

anymore and would be happy to mail it to you. It might need some maintenance but

should be just fine.

Good luck,

Caitlin

the pain is not RSD and the

bone in my leg has not fused or has broke again acording to the CT.

So now I have to find the next step to get fixed.

The leg is hurting in the 7-9 range all the time. I cant sleep any more.
