Hey all, just curious if anyone gone through the healing process for a complete Achilles tendon seperation.
I seperated mine on Aug 1st while attempting to stiffle the mouth of a 17 year old girl on the tennis court (I was winning when I heard the big SNAP)
Sounded like a gun shot, hurt like hell too...
I walked on it all week, walked my daughter down the isle on Sat the 7th, drank and danced at the wedding all night long (not knowing I had a complete seperation) I had myself convinced it was a torn muscle or something...not so much a good idea.
Flew back home from Seattle on the 8th, and had surgery last Monday. There was a 2 inch gap between the two ends, so he has sewn it back together.
Today it has been one week, and I am hearing 4-6 weeks in the cast then a walking boot with therapy...
Question is, anyone else gone through this and have any lessons learned to share?
Thanks,
Ken
