Many patients that come to us from US and Canada often have a long car drive or long flight back home. If you are one of them, don’t worry – your transportation experience will be just fine. You may discover a light discomfort around your incision areas days following lap band surgery, but other then that you will be feeling just fine and are certainly up for the travel back home. Getting up and walking throughout the flight and stopping along the drive will ensure proper blood flow and get your system moving.
