For those wondering about flying...

I'm going to Scotland in April, and I plan on getting unfilled before I go. I have heard too many horror stories, and I don't want to be miserable for my trip! lol

What were the horror stories?

Who in Africa is going to give you an unfill?

Well, they do have hospitals in the city with Dr's. I am hoping he doesn't expect me to do it!!!!!!

I flew a week after banding... and again a couple of months later. I will fly again in August.

Sure, there could be some restriction, but since planes are somewhat pressurized anyway, unless you are flying in the luggage compartment, it is not a big problem. If you eat on the flight, just be careful and extra slow n eating.

But it shouldn't be a problem.

I was told by my doctor that people can feel tightness due to the stress they have about flying. As you notice if you are stressed out you feel tight. I don't stress out when flying so I should be fine. I have talked to others that fly and no one has had a problem.
