I said this before, and I'll repeat for your benefit. We are all individual, and the more complicated your brain and hydro/surgery history are, the more trouble you'll have with flying. I am 40 yo, born with hydro, shunted in infancy, and have
never had any trouble with flying. Some years ago, though, my hubby and I were driving through the mountains in Tennessee, and I thought I was in failure. My headache and confusion were so bad, I couldn't stay awake, I was sick as a dog...you get the pic. There is a difference between driving in elevated areas and flying. I know from personal experience.
