[quote=Anonymous]The surgery is not the issue, it's the never-ending rehab! Also, walking will depend on meniscus dame (if any). If they attempt repair (difficult), you could be non-weight bearing for a period of time (6 weeks for me), if they cut it put, you'll be walking sooner but in the long run are likely to have early onset arthritis. On to the rehab: multiple times per week for what feels like forever. It's long. And boring. And repetitive. And progress is S L O W. And you have to do it to regain full range of motion. This is where you'll need help and support. Can you hold off on surgery until the fall, when the kids will be in school? Might he easier to get yourself to and from all those appointments [/quote]
