The surgery went very well yesterday. Overall, my doctor had to take about 50% of my medial meniscus. Coming home from the surgical center, I felt invincible. Unfortunately about 12 hours later, the numbing shot wore off.
My doctor prescribed Percoset for me. It seems to be taking the edge off, so I am very grateful. The main problem I am having today (one day after surgery) is walking. I am supposed to be putting weight on the knee, but I find myself hobbling still. Hopefully, this will diminish over the next two days. On Sunday, I get to take the huge ACE bandage off of my knee. I think that might give me more flexibility as well. I need to be sure that I exercise it since my doctor ended up not prescribing physical therapy for it.
