I had surgery a little over a week ago on my Achilles. The lower part of the tendon was split down the middle in the back to get to a bone spur. That was removed, along with scar tissue and extra bone. In the process, the tendon was basically detached from the heel, so it had to be pinned with 4 plastic pins back onto the heel bone. I'll be hobbling awhile. The good news is that I am going to get the other side done in the Fall due to an exorbitant deductible ($7k). On crutches/in a non-walking cast for another 4-5 weeks, then a walking boot for 3+ weeks. It's my left foot, so I think I can ride pretty soon!

Doc, as that extremely smart football player once said, this is an "amphibious" model.

Find a good physical therapist, Dawn had this done last year and the rehab was the roughest part for her.
