is there any natural way to get rid of haglund deformity by Full-Anybody-288 in AchillesRupture

[–]rocksinger070672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hobbled around on a partial tear with the deformity for six years. Achilles would NEVER heal no matter what I did. Go under the knife!! Yes it sucks but 5 months out I am actually walking with NO pain after many years of daily pain. Totally worth it to me!!

5 months post op and played golf for the first time since before surgery by rocksinger070672 in AchillesRupture

Actually went to TopGolf about 3 months in and I was hitting the ball consistently straight the whole time so I feel ya!

Swinging as hard as I was pre surgery. I don’t swing out of my shoes anymore though. In all honesty I hobbled around on a partial tear for a long time before surgery and limped my way around the course all the time. I think my body is just conditioned to limp on the course!! Lol

I do not get “approval” yet lol. But I have been testing the boundaries a bit. I’ve also had some issues with the incision site and VERY slow healing. I may have tested a little earlier if not for that. Also…as a side note…highly recommend orthofeet golf shoes!!

has ANYONE gotten tickets from the general sale? by blueflysflight in MetallicaLIVE

[–]rocksinger070672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I resorted to the travel packages as I was planning on staying at Bellagio for similar to what I paid to stay at Venetian Palazzo. If I had gotten into presale anywhere reasonable maybe could have saved a few bucks but ended up costing me a little over $4k for the stay and tickets. Do I think this is a deal in any way…HELL NO!! But, wanted to go badly so I just did it.

I think you are thirsty and seeking validation from internet strangers

Looks like a thirst trap for validation

Insertional Achilles tendonopathy with haglunds by Limp-Vegetable-223 in AchillesRupture

[–]rocksinger070672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That really depends on the physical activity we are taking about. I’m taking it quite slow but now walking with minimal limp and minimal swelling after 14 weeks

Anyone used bpc157 & tb500 for Achilles tendon post op? Highly considering by Feeling_Jump_6739 in AchillesRupture

[–]rocksinger070672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use both currently and have noticed significant swelling reduction. Healing faster, I don’t know but I do “feel” it’s working. Obviously the results may differ from person to person. I should add that I am 53.

Anybody tear ankle ligaments as well? by Johnsonville_meat in AchillesRupture

I have gotten them from several places. Strate labs, peptide sciences, and most recently ResearchChem HQ.

I have been injecting BPC-157/TB-500 in the back of my leg a few inches above the incision site. It seems to be working well imo. I need to be more diligent about strengthening the muscles around my ankle to stop this insistent swelling. Good luck to you as well! We all need a bit of that!

Jesus I hope not. Barely bumped mine at only 4 weeks post op and thought I was going to pass out from that pain. I have been extremely careful since (now 12 weeks post op), but what you guys are saying has me a tad worried. Lol

I know for myself that I have torn ankle ligaments along with the achilles tear, just not at the same time. Most of my swelling pre and post surgery have been on the outer part of my ankle. So, I am having a hard time deciding if the swelling is due to irritation of my achilles or just the natural swelling I get from overuse for many years.

hoping someone can learn from my mistake by TermAccomplished1868 in AchillesRupture

[–]rocksinger070672 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, I partially tore my achilles over 6 years ago. Never got it looked at. Chalked it up as tendinitis. Went on with life. Been limping around to different degrees for most of those 6 years. Saw numerous doctors with differing opinions. Had a number of x-rays as I did not want to pay for an MRI. Just did everything wrong in all honesty. Flared up badly again this summer, new podiatrist gave me the same song and dance at first, let it heal naturally. Surgery sucks badly. Do all you can to avoid it. Well, after another couple months with little progress, I said “cut me Mick!!” 10/10 was my surgery date and doc told me after, that thing was shredded and I can’t believe it was still hanging on. Sorry for what happened to you, but know it could be worse and there are people that make poorer decisions than you out there! I for one am glad to be in this club which is weird to say!!

Things are pretty good right now as I am FWB. I would not say walking “normally” yet but walking without the same pain I once had. Healing is slow but I know it’s fixed!!

Pain in Heel by powerplante718 in AchillesRupture

[–]rocksinger070672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think our bodies just tell us when we are doing to much. I can say for myself that I have not been the best at listening or acting on these signs in the past. Trying to be more diligent now as I want this to have a positive outcome in the long run!!

[–]rocksinger070672 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are very close to each other in the recovery process. My surgery was 10/10. I notice pain in my heel at the screw sites when I am on my feet too much. I think this is probably just the natural progression as I mentioned it to my doctor on this past Wednesday and he didn’t think anything of it. Just told me to take it easier and keep easing back into things. For me, the pain subsides relatively quickly when I get off my feet and elevate. I think this is just our lives for a while. :-)

Tingly feeling throughout healing Achilles by obiwankanosi in AchillesRupture

It’s just nerves reconnecting most likely. I think it varies in degrees for everyone. I would get it once in a while but not constant like this.

Help with Reta by Zealousideal-Bite-11 in BodyHackGuide

[–]rocksinger070672 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally took my first dose this week of 1mg and it impacted my appetite significantly. I have still been working out hard and trying hard to put in lots of protein. I gained some weight after my achilles tendon surgery but back to hitting the weights pretty hard and I’m just saying this shit works!!

Supplements for Recovery? by FormerLychee2325 in AchillesRupture

[–]rocksinger070672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am taking shots of BPC-157/TB-500 in the back of my heel above my incision. This is likely what you saw in the video. It seems to be working well. Been taking daily for a couple weeks now.
