I can't find the old knee thread to update, so I'll start a new one.
I had the first of my series of surgeries this morning to correct my torn cartilage and it was really a piece of cake. The worst part of the whole procedure was getting the IV. The surgery itself lasted app. 1 hour and recovery was about 45 minutes. I didn't even need crutches and I've been walking on it most of the day with no real pain. (That may be due to the fact that I'm on Percoset, though)
I'm probably going to try to ride around the neighborhood next weekend and see how it feels.
