Update

Quick update.
Knee – today is Wednesday, had the operation on last Thursday and it’s still a bit swollen BUT feeling better each day.

Not sure of the recovery time or when in fact I will be able to be “back to normal” – all I can say is that I am a frustrated “athlete” who just wants to get back to exercise.

You can see the 3 holes in the knee – the top one is where they put the tube to fill with liquid (and then used as the drain after the operation) and the 2 holes below the kneecap where I’m guessing they put the camera in one and the tool in the other. You saw the piece that they took out and I was quite shocked by the size of it.


Will keep you updated on my progress – have an appointment to see the specialist on Friday.

  1. You will be able to surf, run and ride your bike again. You probably can play football/soccer again too. Just be patient, Grasshopper.

    I'm glad the surgery is finally over. All will be well in time.
