I have a similar story
Several of my bike riding friends have had to take a year off from riding to have nasty operations on their knees, which start with a bit of pain.

I've had pain for the last 12 months. Keep going to the doctor and they keeps saying it's nothing to worry about. I had to crawl up my stairs on Sunday night it was so bad (although not so bad now as I've been resting).
