Anyone else had this and repair surgery? If so what length of time can I expect out of action.
Do you know if its medial (inner) or lateral (outer) meniscus?

Also, how do you think that you have torn it?

Any sports?

Recovery period mentioned by SpaceGreyonBlack is what theory states.

In practice, it depends on your pre-injury fitness level, approach of treatment, your requirement in professional sports decide how long you are off from a game (if you do one)?

Your consultant will tell you generic recovery time but your physio will work with you till you can pay the bills or get recovered (whichever comes first).

Hope its not biggie and you recover soon.
