I ABSOLUTELY understand what you are saying in that regard as it is pain that limits my activity too. I did eventually prevail with SSDI, but it was a tough 3 year battle. The SSA seem only to want to hear that we can't sit or stand because of an objective reason.....not that we technically can stand, but are limited because of pain.
Knowing that and SSA's own policies regarding if you can work, I would not apply while I was still working.
Obviously, many people here disagree with that.
You have to do what you think is right.

I will not apply while I am still working, only after I get the knee done. I don`t think it will have to be to much of an objective call on SSD`s part. I have x-rays and a MRI that shows my lower spine is now corkscrew shape because of degenerative changes.
