    I appreciate reading detailed technical descriptions of my knee, but I lack the medical background to know what this means for my appointment with a surgeon. It's nice to know it's mostly normal.

      @pzmyers As someone who had a partial meniscectomy a few years back, I am disturbed by a recent study that suggests that not only does the operation do no good, the outcomes may be WORSE than a placebo.

      If your surgeon offers you a choice, be sure to insist on the placebo.
