Bone density and healing times
Posted , 2 users are following.
I take Anastrozole to block Estrogen and my bone density has decreased over the past 2 years. Will this affect the time it takes for my broken kneecap to heal after surgery? Surgery was 1/16/18

I am also on anastrazole! Am on it 5 yrs and 5 months, my oncologist is keeping me on it as long as possible as the breast cancer index study shows a high return potential. The anastrazole is known to cause joint damage and issues to tendons and ligaments. I'm 12 1/2 weeks post knee replacement and do think the anastrazole has slowed my knee recovery BUT it beats the alternative. How long have you been taking it?
