I went on a cruise last year for my daughters graduation. It was 2+ months after my knee surgery but before my CRPS was diagnosed (I was diagnosed with peroneal nerve palsy just before my surgery).

I don't know if it was the flight or the salty air but my 'bad' leg swelled up something awful. And the pain...ugh. By the 2nd evening, we rented a motor scooter for the duration and I checked in with ship medical. All the tests were negative but because I had surgery recently, I had to go to the ship doc every day for a lovenox injection. I flew back home with no problems.

I love cruising and am hesitant to take any other type vacation anymore.Cruise critic has message boards where you can get more information about what accessibility all the cruise lines offer.
