I'd be grateful for your comments - good or bad !!!

I was wondering how did the flying work out for your daughter? My ankle/foot swells so bad, it feels like it might just blow up. I am concerned about the change in pressure, and it's effect on the RSD. I also must keep it constantly elevated, and feel that would be problematic as well.
