Has anyone information on when it is safe to fly after THR? The opinions are variable from 6 weeks to not earlier than 3 months. My THR is July 6th, and our first family reunion, which I am sponsoring, requires a flight fo 5 hours (6?) on August 25th.
My ortho said I could take aspirin, OK, but my realy concern is that in bad weather the "stay in seat" sign can remain on for up to 3 hours, meeaning no walking & aiding the circulation. We are doing a trans Pacific flight, so we really can't land anywhere.
I would particularly appreciate feedback from those who have flown, or medical specialists.
Another concern is leaving home right in the middle of my physical therapy. Again, has this happened to any of you?
I must make a decision soon, so thank you in advance! dawabbit is 64
