I just checked some studies, and they're still contradictory. One shows higher rates of non-union after surgery for lower leg fractures in GLP-1 users (relevant to your case, ZepBoundAndDown), so it's probably best to avoid them around the fracture until it starts healing. But some big studies show reduced complications and readmissions after elective surgeries like knee replacements and hernia repairs. And diabetics on GLP-1s have better outcomes for different surgeries. Listen to your surgeon, even if they're not fully up-to-date on the research.
