OATS/COR Procedure

I am a 47 year old active female that began experiencing pain in my left knee 8 months ago. An arthroscopy showed a 15mm missing piece of cartilage on the weight-bearing medial side of my femor. Three months later, I had a COR procedure which is where they move some cartilage from a non-weight bearing portion of the femur and put in into the defect area. I am 5 weeks post-op and would like to know if anyone would like to tell me what their recovery was like. Knowing what to expect will relieve anxiety. Hope to hear from you at jmcreynolds2001@yahoo.com.
