Anyone travelled long haul for surgery ie. Australia - Mexico?

Hello everyone,

I have been reading the posts for a few days now but have not found anyone who has travelled long haul for their surgery.

Has anyone made the journey from Australia to Mexico for the surgery? Or a similar distance, it's about 30 hours all up. I live in Perth and the flights consist of about 3/4 plane changes depending on the airline. Just wanted to know whether one would feel up to such a long journey after major surgery.

Any advice on surgeons in Mexico and possible hospitals to avoid or recommed would be really appreciated. IT's such a big decision to make from so far away!

Thanks

Sharon

Pandashazz, I wish you could reply to a message, I have so many questions for you with regards to the long haul flight. Did you take the mechanical boots? I am worried about the dvt prevention. I am also in WA
