Had a knee scope earlier today. So far it seems like it went really well. I'm not as nauseous from the anesthesia as I thought I'd be. Got my pain meds and my antibiotics, looks like I will catch up on my nap quotas and watch football this weekend. Gotta get this knee rehabbed, November is going to be a busy month!

Had mine done 10 weeks ago today. Use the crutches and take it easy for the first few days. I took my pain meds per the schedule for 3 1/2 days then weaned myself off of them...just took advil after that. Don't be a tough guy and over do it, you will pay later...trust me I know...lol. I started my rehab 2 weeks after surgery...nice and easy bit of stretching and worked myself up to more. I worked it out in the pool for about 20-30 minutes a day after about 3 1/2 weeks. I'm probably 90-95% now. I've been climbing stairs, riding my ATV, and walking around out in the woods just fine. Hope this helps, good luck.

But not on the operated knee.
I might just ditch the crutches and just be careful.
