Hi there. My father has had his mitral valve replaced. There has been a couple of set backs with his recovery. He will have spent nearly 3 weeks in the hospital.Fingers crossed he will be out on friday 5th. He is due to fly out to orlando on friday the 9th of september. Is that to soon to fly after his operation?
Hello, If He is mobile and on walking after 200 MTS if there is no breathless or fatigue, and he is maintaining normal oxygenation i.e.. Saturation more than 95 %, He should be Good to fly. He should have taken his medication on the day and let me carry enough stock to last for the trip. If he is still not back to his routine let him use a wheelchair for airport transfers. The airlines would arrange for the same for him. Regards
