[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 198588, member: 4040"] I had a meniscectomy (sp?) on Sept. 15. The ortho said they repair if you're under 20, and remove if you're older...something about blood flow to the area and the healing process. I am still in pain from the surgery, and, after I worked Friday afternoon, it became PAIN all over again. I'm a substitute teacher, and thought I could easily do three hours, because I could sit down, and I was so sure I'd be fine that I accepted two more jobs for the upcoming week. After Friday, I cancelled those jobs. Today we looked at some model homes, walked around maybe 30 - 45 minutes, and now I'm waiting for the Percocet to kick in. Vicodin isn't strong enough anymore. This surgery was no joke, and I was not at all prepared for the amount of recovery time this is taking. I thought I'd be up, bouncing around, all cured. Boy, was I wrong. [/QUOTE]
