Next appointment
Just a quick follow up to my follow up, just got my next appointment….30th of bloody March, that means I will have had this cast on for 51/2 weeks. I will definitely ask if I can go into a boot next, no more casts!
It is amazing how different Consultants treat Achilles ruptures, there really doesn’t seem to be any consensus.

There’s something like a consensus (or two, surgical and non-) among the research community and the people who publish guides for the professional associations. But most doctors don’t spend much time reading about it. No pressure, since they got certified as MDs.

The inconsistencies got me too !!!!
I spotted your soccer / slip on stairs cause and sensed some similarity.
I had been footy training and canned it early so not to overdo it on my first session in ages (I was pretty fit at the time, just not played footy in a while), but when I got home I slipped on the stairs and thought I’d got the worse cramp to date!!!! Sadly not
Anyway I hope you are all healed up now
