Getting Drugs & Knee Surgery
Wish me luck all, it's 11pm my time here, have to be at the hospital at 5am, arthroscopic knee surgery is scheduled for 7am tomorrow morning. Rode 135 miles today, cleaned up the sporty & put it on the battery tender, it's gonna be sitting while I'm on the mend. I'm sure gonna miss riding, but thank God that I have this forum and all you good people to help pass the time and get me through this.

Let us know how everything turns out, Rascal! When they ask you what your pain is on a scale of 1 - 10 (ten being most painful), a response of 7 or 8 will net you some good pain relief!  Good luck!

It'll be easy. I had the arthroscopic, which led to a knee replacement last Feb. I was on the golf course at the end of March!! (I'll be 60 in June).
Good Luck! Dave

Thanks all, surgery done & I'm home now. Had torn cartilage as most of the problems. Do a follow up visit with doc in about a week to ten days, so far so good.

Hi Frank - sorry I missed the post last night.
I hope you will follow doctors orders and get
the rest you need so you can ride soon.
I'll have a beer for you when I get home tonight.
