They had to drain a large amount of blood from swelling on my knee a few weeks after the surgery. And I didn't have full range of motion for quite some time. And even now, i have 2 or 3 days a year where my knee hurts like hell for no particular reason. I was still young and in shape and weighed about 175lb at the time.
Speaks almost definitely has a better surgeon, and may bounce back in a few weeks, but it may not be a given.

I had a three quarter tear on the upper I wasn't out of rehab in a month - but I did go back to work in 5 days although it was on crutches
