Had a medial meniscus tear in my left knee fixed through arthroscopic surgery about 5 years ago. Prior to surgery I could walk ok and then all of a sudden it would just lock up and I couldn't put any weight on it. Had MRI etc. and went for surgery.
Went in at 7:50AM, walked out of the hospital at around 11:00AM. That was a Friday, back to work Monday. Yes it was tender and swollen for awhile and I could not kneel on it for the better part of a year. The improvement was WELL worth the surgery. I was 33 at the time so age might play a part.
I'm sure the doc. you talked to couldn't tell what was going to happen for you because he hadn't seen your knee from the inside. A neighbor up the road had one done two weeks ago and the doc. saw things once inside that he couldn't see from the MRI. She has been walking and riding a bike, slowly but doing it.
