Looks like I am the latest on this list of Achilles rupturees. Was feeling good getting back into running for three months, then hot yoga for one month, so I decided to test the waters back into basketball. Bad idea at 44. Tore the Achilles the second time I played, on literally the first move of the day. Guy ran off, I pushed off my right leg to chase him, and it felt like a shelve of books collapsed on the back of that leg. Not long after that I vomited a few times either from shock or pain or just the idea that something might be torn. I had left one job two months earlier and starting another with insurance not yet kicked in so I was very nervous. But I realized I had some time to activate my COBRA to pay for a continuation of my previous health insurance. Without that I would have been in trouble. My family doctor confirmed that it was an Achilles tear and now I was the one lying there with the residents looking at my leg saying "Ah, that's what an Achilles tear looks like." Nine days after the accident I had the surgery. Eight days after that here I am. By now I am getting sick of the crutches in my armpits all the time. Lot a lot of pain in the leg I mostly don't take the percocet, the ibuprophin seems to do the trick. They ordered for me that knee-scooter thing but it still had not arrived, I am looking forward to it. I was back at work after four days and everyone has been very helpful. All things are a challenge but they are all possible so I don't let myself think too far ahead. Face each stairwell as I come to it and it works out. Good luck to you all.
