I have been offered private operation on 20/6/2014 and have a prebooked holiday 18/7/2014 and worried I won't be healed enough to go,has anyone else flown this sort of time after surgery. I'm sure it will be great for recovery once there just a little worried if it's too soon

Many thanks for any input.

    Hi Tracy

    i had CT release op. on 9th April and flew out to Dubai on 19th. 

    No problems and now at 5 weeks still a bit tender but free from that awful pain in the night. I am now sleeping through each night without any tingling or pain. I would recommend the operation. I had open surgery.

    have a good holiday
