Sulfasalazine & Sulfonamide Hydralazine Isoniazid Procainamide & Phenytoin
This is by no means a definitive list (they are many!) but these are some of the most common causes.
Furosemide (and other loop diuretics) Aminoglycosides Vancomycin Quinine Aspirin

Well, almost 6 weeks have gone by since my surgery date and I'm in less pain. But after 6 weeks of not being allowed to bend my knees at all are put any pressure I fear that the worst is yet to come in relevance to pain.
Next week going for X-rays. So it's going to determine if the surgery helped or if it was all for naught. What physio will look like.

August 20th i got a double knee surgery to fix osteo necrosis caused by chemo.
