Hi everyone

I ruptured my achillies back in October and found this forum really helpful. Ruptured in October - conservative treatment but then re-ruptured in December and had surgery.

Happy to help if anyone needs advice, if you have recently ruptured then do not worry, time goes by quickly and you'll be out and about before you know it
