Hi. Your clinical examination is more important if you have obvious laxity in your knee joint. Also, this surgery is not an emergency as you can for few weeks to couple of month. Let the acute trauma resolve then we can have a better idea of your clinical picture. But if still you have instability symptoms then with your weight it is advisable to get surgery to prevent future arthritis.
