I had an mri that showed a cist on my meniscus.
When i had it scoped for a second opinion, i ended up having 6 hour surgery to replace a meniscus that was torn to shreds, and EVERY ligament in my knee had stretched and NOT torn... Which was an issue all to its self....
But folks seem to forget that Doc's "practice" medicine.
FWIW, the orthopedic surgeon for the panthers in 2000 did the work.
Great doctor.
(I knew it wasn't a cist. I folded my toe to my chest at the knee)
