    1) Should one leg feel longer then the other? My left leg (the one that
    has the rod in it) feels longer then the right. When I walk i have to
    hobble (i know i broke a femur, who wouldn't?) but its not hobbling
    because of pain, it seriously feels like one is longer then the other,
    is this an illusion that my body feels because of the rod, and
    something it can get over in time?

    I've seen femur roddings that were not aligned properly and they have
    had to go back in to fix it. Usually the problem is with
    internal/external rotation. I doubt that they would screw up a leg
    length, but it's possible. Measure from your ASIS (point of bone on the
    front of your pelvis) to your medial malleolus (inner ankle bone) on
    both sides and compare.
