Risks vs. benefits. I'm such a scaredy cat, I'd forego the trip altogether. In fact, I hope I never have a reason to get on a plane again and am glad I did my traveling when I was much younger. You have a great attitude and I admire you for it. Take good care. Maybe let the stewards on the flights know about your condition? Take it easy and love every moment.
