BigGirlPanties 957 Posted March 14, 2014 You should be fine...but check with your doctor, just to be sure... you will be surprised, by that time, you will have extra room for that stupid, little airplane seat! Congrats on setting your date! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carlotta1 401 Posted March 14, 2014 This should be totally fine. Speak with your surgeon if u feel still uncomfortable about flying, I am 3 months out and flying out tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeeLee37 109 Posted March 14, 2014 I have read many stories by people who went to Mexico for their surgeries and they were flying home within a week of surgery. It seems like you would be fine that far out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doreen Dumelle-Kneller 1 Posted March 17, 2014 I just went to my 2 week Post-Op visit with the Pulmonary Doctor and she said 4 - 6 weeks before getting on a airplane. The concern is blood clots (Thrombosis) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
