Travel & Hip Replacement

[gregandkelly63]

Thanks everyone for your feedback, this is why I like the board. I think we will be postponing our trip until after we get back from Jamaica in March.

JohnG thanks for letting me know about the Travel Insurance - I thought it was something you could only purchase at the time you bought the tickets. I think we will get this insurance before our trip in March.

Thanks again everyone!!! Have a great week.

Good idea! Listen to your doctor. He went to medical school, you didn't. March isn't that far off!

I am 50 years old and traveled from Washington, DC to Las Vegas for a meeting six days after my surgery. I was in pain, but walking around helped. I was definitely fine after one month. Just try to get an aisle seat so that you can stretch your leg a lot. It's a long flight. Good luck!!

That's what, a three hour flight? Slight difference here.

Smokehouse, Check with your health insurance about complications due to previous known conditions. If something comes up related to your surgery you may not be covered. Best of luck.
