I did it and it didn't work for me, but then again nothing really worked. I was in a boot for almost 4 months so as a last ditch effort before sugery I had protien rich plasma injection done. Its been 6 weeks and I had an ultra sound done. It seems to be healing well. I'm doing PT,swimming and light riding and am having very little pain. I'm not a doctor so I don't know what your situation is but this worked for me. PRP for the achilllies tendon is still pretty new and exspensive but I was willing to try it and it has worked.
