Meanwhile 9 years later …..
Hello all,
As you can see I am now 9 years post rupture and everything is fine here. My Achilles ankle is still a bit stiff in the morning but it soon wears off. TBH I don’t really think about it during the day and just get on with stuff without worrying.
I have now retired and fill my days golfing and walking the dog ( tough life !) . Good luck to all who are suffering presently …. it can be tough and Frustrating but it does get better eventually.
Happily I am still in touch with a couple of Achilles mates who ruptured at the same time as me and we helped each other through.It is nice to see this site still up and running it certainly helped me through some very dark days.
Good luck all see you in a years time !
Richard.

Glad to hear from you Richard! I read back in your blogs and you’re funny! Enjoy your retirement and keep on moving!

Well I’ve always been a firm believer in trying to find the funny side of everything (even rupturing your bloody Achilles’ tendon !)

Flipping heck Richard can it really be 9 years…. I hope I am included in the ‘couple’ . I’ve just allowed Martin to use my old laptop and he found the site still in shortcuts.
You didn’t tell me you’d retired, it’s alright for some.
For the benefit of others on here Richard and I still email each other about football …. he’s a Leeds supporter I’m a Manchester City supporter.
