10 years !!
Hello all,
Unbelievably I am now 10 years post rupture and everything is fine. I really can’t believe how the time has flown.
Achilles wise I have a slightly stiff ankle due to my long recovery in plaster not enough to cause me any issues though. My recent purchase of an electric bike has allowed me to get out and about again and I love it !
Good luck to all you recoverees it’s a shite injury but it does get better ( eventually).
Cheers all.

I love hearing follow-up stories after so much time has passed from the initial injury. Gives me hope since I am 10 days post-op!

Hello Chris,
Yes it can seem a long road … I had a double recovery as the docs tried a non invasive approach which didn’t work so 4 months later I had the Op. It certainly tested my resolve as I was off work and in plaster for nearly 6 months !
This site helped me loads and I’m still in touch with a couple of fellow sufferers who ruptured at the same time as me ! … hidden benefits.
Good luck with your recovery and of there’s anything I can do in terms of advice or support don’t hesitate to ask.
Richard.
