Yeah, just like the title. Saw a specialist, surgery for meniscus won't guarantee healing of tendon, just will clean up the ends (?) The ACL surgery will have a 6 mo. recouping period, one week with no walking. I have a 90 year young Grandma, and a lovely boyfriend, but how does one week without walking work?

And most Importantly: Is it worth it?

Ouch, I'm sorry! I have not gone through surgery for thiss, but my friend has. It is a long and painful process, but one that is worth it! Good luck!
