I checked out the Doc, he's board certified, and is a sports medicine doctor. So getting the knee fixed will get me back on the bike and other fun things. He carefully inferred that I should have had surgery months ago. Which was probably true. So I'm happy having a doc that grasps the concept of sports medicine.

I live alone, so will up to me to get to PT and such. Am hoping to bribe neighbors to take me to/from surgery.
Me too, just read about this now and I have sympathatic pain for you, sad face here. So glad you found a sports med doc! He will get you fixed up in no time flat and you'll be out and about on your bike. About the PT, check to see if you can have in home PT visits for the first couple of weeks or so. When I had knee replacement my insurance allowed in home PT care for the first few weeks. It was great not having to go out to the rehab center.
