Hi, my name is Fran and I will be getting my band on July 4 at the Molding Clinic.My son had surgery last Dec. 21 and is down 70 lbs. Dr. Grossbard did his. I decided to go to Mexico because it is $10,000 less that what he paid. I will be traveling alone and am a bit concerned about the trip home. I will be flying back to Tampa and changing planes in Phoenix. My flight is about 7 hrs. Has anyone had any problems with flying that soon after surgery? Thanks for the help!

Congratulations on your upcoming surgery, it is great that you will have your son to go through this journey with you. Flying home , you should be OK, I would take along some Gas X and liquid Tylenol Adult strenght, in the event you have some uncomfortablness on the flight home. I have several friends who fly to Mexico for fills and they have to fly home with plane changes, it just makes for a long day but they all make it home safe, just tired Good Luck on Monday

Hope all is well....hope your at home getting rest.
