Note
(injured)
Had a punt at going to the minor injuries clinic per physios suggestion to see if I could get a scan out of them. I turned up at the wrong hospital though (drove to Royal Forth Valley rather than going to Stirling hospital doh!), but managed to wing an appointment at A&E. Doc agreed that the Achilles wasn't completely ruptured (thanks for confirming) but I need to go via GP to be referred if I can get a scan, they would only do something there and then if my achilles was in two pieces. bit of a waste of all our times so a bit frustrating, will try not to rant........
going to see private sports doc next Friday. in the meantime rest and ice, and probably don't plan to ride 180km and 3500m climb. boo.
on the flip side, I now have lots of time to watch the TdF and catch up on all the chores I've been avoiding for the last 6 months.
I am walking OKish, but with a bit of a self-imposed limp now I'm worried about it. Spent a bit of the day horizontal which probably helped, and managed to stumble up the monument from the car park.
