7/23/25 Leg Operation

I am to have an operation on my legs. They will be cut open on the outsides of the legs below the knees. I tell the male doctor that the issue (pain) is on the outside of the right knee (like in waking life). At first I think both legs are to be operated on, but then it is just my right leg. I ask the doctor if my leg has to be shaved before the operation. He says no. Feeling: I am not comfortable with the doctor cutting below the knee and also worrying about how long the recovery time will be.
