Has anyone else ruptured both Achilles tendons at the same time?

Wow that's amazing. I ruptured just my left Achilles tendon 21 Dec 2016. I'm 10 months into my recovery and it was hard work. I can't imagine both ankles being injured I'm 40 years old. A complete tear while playing basketball smh. Had surgery Jan 6 2017 out of work 6 weeks then a ligh duty job at work back to normal duty at 4 months. Hard cast then boot and crutches. Physical therapy is what did it for me. My therapist pushed me and suggested swimming but exercises at home daily were really important. I raised up on one foot week 15 and they were so impressed. Week 22 I was back light jogging but I wouldn't suggest it. The throbbing and light swelling made me regret that. I walked a mile in the morning with a break and stretching every other morning until I built up the distance and speed. I would never suggest over doing the exercises it may cause set backs!! Eat healthy it promotes healing increase protein intake . Plenty of vegetables and water... all that stuff we learned growing up will pay off now about healthy eating and diet. Be aware that weight gain is normal u can't get around as effectively or as much so focus on what u eat. Swimming really helps even if it's just pacing the pool. Stay with the physical therapy for as long as possible they are like your personal cheerleaders. Good luck with everything and know the road is long and slow but definitely do-able!

Not sure if I have ruptured Achilles but Spanish hospital indicated a tear in both after falling off my bike.

All I have been given by the Spnish Doctor is strong anti inflammatory tablets, am seeing very little progress both still swollen and cannot stand on my toes although I can move them back and fourth and am doing calf stretches, have suffered from plantar faciitis in the right heel before and can feel similiar pain.

Now five weeks since the accident and very iittle progress so am concerned

How are you doing now? I read you mentioned you had tendon transfer on both legs. What tendons did they transfer to fix your Achilles? And why did they had to take this approach?

I also had the same surgery 7 weeks ago. I can’t move my toes much specially the big toe. How’s your toes movement?
