flying after surgery??

Probably a question for those who had the band done in Mexico, how soon did you fly?

I just received approval and thought I might combine surgery recovery time with a quick vacation.

Thanks,

Anne

    Most of the patients who go to Mexico fly home after a day or so, with little problem. However, your energy level will be a bit low for a couple weeks. If you are talking about a "lie around the pool and relax" vacation you would be fine, and some gentle strolling is good for you. Strenuous hiking wouldn't be.
