I suppose I could have been more specific. The medial was a partial removal. I was able to recover from it without any reoccurring issues. When i say that i had a full recovery i meant that i have been able to move on without any issues. Not that it healed, because you are correct in saying that it does not grow back. The lateral meniscus was a full removal. I was told that I could never squat heavy or run for any distance ever again. I would be lying if I said that I never have pain. Squatting can be painful depending on my level of activity for the day, but it hasn't limited me. It has taken some hard work, and intellegent training to return and hit a pr(over a years time)We are all individuals however, and I'm aware that we all react differently to injury and training. If you DO decide to go against doctor recommendations, take it slow, and listen to your body. You know your body better than any of us. Do not push too hard too soon. I wish you the best, and a speedy recovery.
