It's totally normal.
My standard position for a month was laying on sofa with bad leg up on the backrest. Could manage about 10 minutes at a time in sitting position before my toes blew up. Add to that the random stingers in the ankle while nerves reattached and I was not a happy guy.
Hang in there

I tore my Achilles in 2012. Went the no surgery route.
Other than reduced calf size that never came back, I fully recovered from that injury.
I also had major knee damage and subsequent surgery in 2017. I used a cryo cuff after injury, and more importantly after surgery... I had it on 24/7 (other than in the shower) for about 3 months. It's the best thing I found to manage pain and swelling without taking handfuls of pills.
You'll need the ankle specific cuff, and the part that looks like a drink cooler with a hose.
I still use mine on my knee from time to time when it's feeling shitty.
I wish I had known about this device for the Achilles.
Edit: just saw you replied in my old thread and you have the cryo cuff /air cast... nice.

I’m on day 3 post-op for Achilles. They’ve kept me in hospital until now. Foot in boot at 30 deg angle. I can put 15 kg on it.

Update:
Released for walking now with my aircast on. Feels good to be somewhat mobile. Doc said the recovery is looking great and could not believe the strength I had in the strength tests. Start PT Monday.
Walking in the aircast is a pain in the ass as it’s higher than my right foot. Looking into some hiking boots to help level out my stance. Went a little crazy doing things yesterday and now I’m pretty sore today.
