I just got back from Disney yesterday. I left when I was 3 weeks post-op and felt amazing. Ended up contracting an awful stomach virus and was hospitalized. 5 days of violent diarrhea and severe stomach pain--so bad I thought I was having a post-surgical complication which is why I went to the E/R.

Pros: lots of gatorade/water available, high Protein foods available, lots of walking-great exercise after surgery, great way to reconnect with your family that you are traveling with after spending time recovering from surgery.

Cons: FILTH AND GERMS EVERYWHERE :-) Be as careful as you can be to not catch anything. I would not say I am a chronic hand washer but I wash more than the average person--even that was not enough!

Have a great time and stay hydrated!!
