Check With Your Doctor

Before you embark on a trip, check in with your doctor.  Depending on your stage in treatment, he or she may suggest tips or precautions to protect your health.  For example, if you've recently had surgery, you may need a compression sleeve to prevent lymphedema in flight.  He or she may also recommend you post pone your trip until you are more stable in your treatment or recovery.
