Good morning! I had surgery on my foot last Thursday and everything went well! I was nervous about the anesthesia and Camzyos, but the doctors were all informed about me being on Camzyos, and there were no issues! My cardiologist contacted the director of anesthesiology at our local hospital, and he called me! I couldn't believe it! He said he read my doctor's report and they would be using the smallest amount of anesthesia they could and I would be fine. The anesthesiologist told me he was going to try using a sedative, but would go to general anesthesia if he needed to. He ended up needing to and I am fine. Yay! Good luck with your surgery! 🙂
I just read my surgery report and the Anesthesiologist just called it General Anesthesia. I hope this helps.
