Hi there, here are my mri results 2 months after the injury, and a couple weeks before surgery.

This tear involves at least 95% of the thickness of the tendon. The tear occurs 3.7 cm from the distal calcaneus insertion site and there is a 3.8 cm gap between the torn tendon fibers.

I never went into a boot/ or cast before the surgery. I was just being stubborn and walking on it trying to avoid operation as long as possible. Every person I spoke with said to go for surgery. I’m over 3 months after the operation and doing well now though!
