multi-sport

Wow what a great site, to see all the people that are going through the same emotions and tension as I am.  My achilles tear happened playing football, 38 years old good health and fitness.  I was training with a few teens and coledge players and as I surged forward while covering a reciever bang.  Total tear or as the dr said shreaded.  I was a runner trying to  make a transition into triathlons.  I was fairly surtain all sports were over until I read some of the stories in here.  With patience and time I think I will survive.  

wk 2 elevate and rest.  I did get a good report from the dr first visit.  I am able to start free weight training of the upper body very lite weight with high reps.  Of course no weight bearing.  It gets some of the energy out of me so I can sleep.  No drugs this week, I do have a crawling sensation around my heel incision and a lot of muscle twitches from the knee down.  Purple toes like pretty much as veryone out there when I lower my foot for too long.  

Lots of good advise and suggestions for healing out there.   Until wk 3 see you next time.
