Well, hmmmm. That is a good question. Your Dr should make that judgment call for sure. It depends on what all your vacation will involve. Flying?
Driving long distance? Getting 2 units at the same time is gonna put quite a demand on your body.
I'm 3 months out from getting my lumbar implant and it's doing a good job of covering the pain. I'm still pretty 'protective' of the battery site and don't want to take ANY chance of getting infections. My Dr has given me the 'ok' to start swimming again.
I dunno, fionab, that seems to be cutting it pretty close.....

I guess, depending on what your Dr says, you'll have to really 'listen' to your body. I personally wouldn't feel in any condition to do any amount of walking, site-seeing, or riding for extended periods of time at this point. My back muscles are very weak and vulnerable to stress, which easily causes a pain trigger.....but if you are just going to be visiting someone and be in an atmosphere of comfort and 'pampering', then maybe it'll do you a world of good.
