Your fast recovery gives me hope! However my Surgeon just informed me he wants to do both knees, instead of just one. Yikes! The surgery will include removal of floaty bits, repair of torn meniscis in both knees, and probably debridement. I said "Bring it on" thinking that one surgery is preferable to two! Now I'm questioning my sanity.
