I have been smoking Meth on a regular basis for years . I quit 1 day ago which is 4 days prior to my surgery for a total knee replacement. Ive been tested and there is no sign of MRSA but im still worried about the effects my chronic drug use may have on my healing and recovery. Can you give me any insight regarding this? Thank you
Hello, Methamphetamine can have many negative effects on healing and recovery. It is very important that you let the surgeon know what you have been using so that they can estimate the risk for you. Regards
