Age 70. Ruptured my right AT while playing pickleball (5th time I played the game).
Received AirCast boot with 3 wedges (each 1″) on day 2. Weight bearing was accelerated mainly because I had a tough time using crutches. Got around on a knee scooter as best I could.
Removed one wedge on day 8. Next wedge will be removed gradually over a period of about 5 days starting on day 35 (week 6). The final wedge will be removed in steps on day 49 after I see physician on that date.
Many thanks to Agnes, Evan, Morc, SJ and all the others who put so much effort into their blogs.
