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.

Hi Mark
I tore my Meniscus ski racing 12 years ago and removed 20%. did very well until a couple of years ago and had a clean up  Still doing great on the knee If you can get back to riding a bike ,It was the best thing for my knees. I just started rideing my road bike and seems to help all my issues.  All The Best Take Care man Gil
