Zometa and knee replacement surgery?

olympicmtgirl

I am scheduled for my first Zometa infusion next week and I have a partial knee replacement ia month later (and my pre-op med review is two weeks before the surgery).

Does anyone know anything about having bone surgery within a month of Zometa?

Want to get this surgery behind me so I can get back outside!

I don’t have an answer to your question but I would definitely ask your MO who prescribed the shot and the orthopaedic surgeon too.

good luck

Contacted my cancer center nurse line and they said no issue for my knee surgery.

That's a good questions. I had knee replacement surgery a year ago. I asked my orthopedic about starting Zometa. He was very positive about it. Ask your orthopedic.
