This is kind of my fear on flying now that I have been diagnosed etc.

I've flown..6 (6+ hour flights) since 2010, and haven't had any of those types of symptoms. I noticed on my last journey this past August that I got some leg cramps, maybe just from the uncomfy seats, but wasn't something I used to get.


But it's been on my mind on all of those flights. Flights are tough on the body because of those some-what sudden changes. It's one reason I don't really like flying to be honest, but sometimes they are needed lol.

I plan on flying 2 more times this summer (6+ hrs again), but I want to speak with my doctor and be sure. I also don't want my fear to stop me from doing something that I could actually be doing!
