You have to be kidding me! Torn Achilles

So...I over did it. I started having some pain in my foot 3 or 4 weeks ago. I thought it was from wearing really flat sandals. So I bought new shoes! What else is a girl to do? When that didn't work...I bought another cute pair of sandals. Nope, still hurts. So I bought a pair of Birkenstocks. OH MY AWESOMENESS! Love them. Foot pain eases up! Woo hoo!

Yesterday morning, my Achilles started to ache. I ignored it, put on my birks and went to work. It ached pretty much all day. I walked my normal lunch stroll. Ache, pain, I pushed thru. I had Volleyball last night. I played. It ached.

I woke up with morning, got out of bed...OW! HOLY CRAP! The freaking hurts! Who just smacked me in the heel with a ruler? Son of a biscuit, that hurts!

I made an appointment with a Foot and Ankle specialist. I've partially torn my Achilles. No walking, running, jumping, swimming or physical activity for 10 days, at the least! Probably more like 3-4 weeks.

ugh! I'm aggrevated!
