Hello @newtosohcm, I moved you discussions and combined them into the "HCM, Camzyos & Knee Replacement: What are the risks?"

@newtosohcm, have you had a chance to discuss your knee replacement concerns with your cardiologist or surgeon?

I had a follow up visit in person in November with my UCSF cardiologist to assess my latest ECHO to evaluate how the Camzyos was working. She is primarily a researcher. She knows the drug Camzyos extensively and what its effects are on the heart. I told her I was needing a TKR and will try and get more info about going under anesthesia while on this heart drug (a myosin inhibitor) when I have a zoom appointment with her in February. Unfortunately the new CEO over her is telling her to not spend so much time with patients which is disturbing, Things were much much better communication wise before the N.P. left the team and was not replaced.
