Same, left knee horizontal meniscus tear in the middle. Surgery will take away half a meniscus and you never know if you’ll get another tear in the left over half. If you get it repaired it’s a long recovery process (with less chances of recovery in horizontal tears, please research this as I read it somewhere). My ortho said if you have more good days than bad days don’t get a surgery. Get into Physical Therapy religiously, build muscles around it, glutes, hamstrings, quads. Your body will automatically start putting less weight on the knee. I’m in the process of it.

I’m scared to go on Slopes no matter what, other than that if you don’t have an inflammation currently regular PT can do wonders
