September 8th - First meeting with the surgeon

I saw the surgeon (Hayden Morris) and he gave me a rundown of what my options included. We talked briefly about LARS (synthetic ligament) but we agreed it was not the best option due to uncertainty around how well it will hold up in future. We agreed that a traditional knee reconstruction using a graft from my hamstring from my injured leg would be the best option. I was hoping to get the operation booked in on the 17^th, 18^th or 19^th of September however he was fully booked out until October 1^st which I took up. I was told I would be last in after 12 other patients who were all getting clean ups or scopes that day. I was the only one who would be having a knee reconstruction.
