Partial thyroidectomy and flying

Offline Nicphi over 1 year ago

Hi, I am due a partial thyroidectomy in September and have a holiday booked abroad 4 weeks after the procedure. Does anyone have any experience of flying after the procedure, was it allowed and if so do you have to do anything different? Thank you

Hello Nicphi and welcome to Cancer Chat,

Recovery times can differ depending on the surgery, so you'll probably get the best advice from your medical team. There is some guidance around surgery for thyroid cancer, which includes after surgery information on our website and we also have general advice on traveling abroad and cancer.

I hope all this useful and all the best for your upcoming surgery.
