Before you have any surgery, I would strongly suggest you read The Plant Paradox, by Dr. Steven Gundry MD (a famous cardiac and transplant surgeon / inventor) published 2017. NYT best seller. It is life-changing.
Years ago I had the same knee problem, and by my early 50s was being recommended to have replacement surgery. Between high quality supplements and dietary changes (which I researched and was taught about, even though Dr. Gundry's famous book came out years later) my knee problem healed, my joint space returned to normal, pain, swelling, and weakness / "giving way" / "catching sensation" problems gradually went away; and today at age 72 (73 next week) I have no joint or health problems at all. I never had to have that surgery.
Unfortunately, many physicians are unaware of these methods; though some probably are.
