Has anyone ever torn their meniscus?

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone has ever torn their meniscus in their knee and if so what was your experience? My physician examined my knee and suspects a tear but I have to wait 3-4 months for an MRI. I don't want to damage it any further but I still want to exercise. It only causes me trouble when I bend it and it aches when I run on it. Basically it will spontaneously "lock up" in the bent position and it's VERY painful when I straighten it. I never have any warning before it happens and this has been reoccurring for a long time. Any advice? Thanks!
