    Hey, I'm getting knee surgery December 5th, and I just wanted to know if anyone has had problems with anesthesia after smoking. Ive havent smoked in probably 10 days 'dry spell :(", but I just wanted to know anyone else has had surgery with weed in their system.

    Thanks!

    If its just general anesthesia it should be fine. I got some teeth removed and they knocked me out, i blazed the day before and there werent any complications and there shouldnt be. Theres nothing to worry about, toke on :smoke:

    It's been long enough that you should be fine. You don't even need to tell them about the smoking, but they will ask. It does have an effect on the dosage and potency, the two together will either make you go deeper into anesthesia sleep or barely at all. So to anyone thinking weed won't effect surgery with general or local anesthesia are wrong. @OP I wouldn't smoke anymore till after surgery, that's when you need it anyways.

    Good luck hope all goes well. :bongin:
