Knee Problems

Hi
I have a class 2 medical which has just expired and i need to get it renewed. The problem is i am on a waiting list for keyhole surgery on my knee due to an ACL problem. I dont have any problems with my knee 99% of the time and as many of you will know the ACL is mainly affected by pivoting motions rather than walking./running etc.

My question is can i get my class 2 renewed now before the op or will i have to wait until after i have recovered which will be around 8 weeks away. I would like to fly before i go in for the operation if possible.

Also my doctor has assured me that this surgery will not affect my chance of getting my class 1, can anyone confirm this?

Regards

Mike
