rickardracing Posted April 7, 2014 #1 Posted April 7, 2014 Yup, finally going to get this bum knee taken care of. Knife carving is set for April 21st. Had a bit of a scare. Went for my pre-op physical and my ekg shows that I may have had a minor heart attack. Went to my primary care doc and he compared the latest ekg with the one I had 2 years ago. Hardly any difference. Said it was just a minor blip. Nothing to worry abut, so I am cleared for the cutting!! Getting the left knee orthoscoped for torn meniscus. Should be up and riding by middle of next month. Now......to replace that brand new Dekka battery I bought last year that puked out over the winter..........................

Take care of your knees, you'll miss them when they are gone.

bill in mn Posted April 8, 2014 #8 Posted April 8, 2014 All the best with your surgery. I had the same thing done to mine last December and it was a huge relief from the constant throbbing , none now.
Huggy Posted April 8, 2014 #9 Posted April 8, 2014 Good luck with the surgery!!! Had microsurgery a few years ago on my right knee. They went in at three different spots on my knee. Really can't even see where they went in anymore. I was sore for a couple days. First day was the worst but after that I was good to go. I milked it for about two weeks. It was fun having the wife waiting on me hand and foot for a while! The only problem I had was when I went up to visit my son and his family I slipped on his stairs, house coat caught on a nail, and bent AND twisted my knee when I went down. The one thing my doctor said not to do. So instead of only taking a moth or two to heal up properly it took almost a year!! So be careful and listen to your doctor!!!
jakester Posted April 8, 2014 #10 Posted April 8, 2014 Good Luck...Had my left medial meniscus done a few years ago, outpatient, walked out on it that day (not very far walk) Follow the Dr orders. God Bless and a speedy recovery. Bill:080402gudl_prv:
