Mark, best of luck with this surgery of your knee. Getting old bites the big one. I have had total knee reconstruction and an arthroscopic repair ten years after that on same knee. I am hanging in there till the doomed total knee replacement cries out. I say, anyone who has had the cervical and lumbar surgeries like you have had, will find this knee surgery a walk in the park.
