Fletch, my surgery was different (I had a complete ACL tear with no meniscus damage), but now 2 1/2 years later I can pretty much do whatever I want without a brace or anything. (I was able to play most recreational sports for the most part about 7 or 8 months after the surgery). I still get occasional soreness in the patellar tendon area, but nothing too bad.

Like I said though, my situtation was different and I felt that I had to have the surgery because my knee repeatedly would give out when I was walking due to the missing ligament. Now it is stable.
