Nicky6 got a reaction from Lynda486 in Travelling on an 18 hr flight 6 weeks post op- anyone done it?Thanks, I’ll get in touch with them and see what they can offer ?

6 weeks is fine as long as you'll have room in the seat ?
But you may need to get up and move around the plane at times;
you might even want to get a seat close to the toilet?

He scheduled the surgery specifically so I would have the 6 week recovery period and knows I’m going overseas, he doesn’t have any concerns about me travelling it’s more me wondering about the comfort and being concerned as far as food goes and how I’ll manage that on the flight if I’m still on soft foods or even purées, I can’t remember where I was at 6 weeks in after my sleeve and not sure if bypass will be different.

no experience with this particular scenario; however, I just wanted to say that most RNY'ers do not dump, and if you're one of the ones who do, you can control it by limiting (or avoiding) sugar.
