My Favorite Knee Surgery of Them All
Surprise! I just had knee surgery. And it was awesome. Yup, I said awesome referring to surgery. And I am not on pain medication anymore so dont blame that statement on Percocet. Compared to other operations I've had this one kicked ass. I was under for only 30 minutes, over two hours less than my norm. Crutches were unnecessary. I only needed narcotics through the day after surgery. Who knew surgery could be this easy? I should have focused more in the past on destroying cartilage than ligaments. The scars are not as sick as those from previous surgeries; a small price to pay. I dont know all the details about the success of the surgery yet. I do know they found a lot of junk, crap, scar tissue, floaters (whatever you prefer to call it) and there were no visible tears in any ligaments. The latter is a first so consider that I success in itself. They sucked all the bad stuff out leaving me a well traveled, but not too messed up to work with knee. I'll wait till I visit the good doctor before I make comments about my next surfing session and bike ride. Thanks to everyone who's shared a good word or given me a shoulder over the past 6 months or so. I can finally see the light.
