How do I find out about this: Connect information about the septal myectomy or helpful tips for planning to go to Rochester?

And how will I ever get on a plane a few days after this surgery?

Hi @hopenr, there are a lot of posts on Connect that talk about this...it is not a specific place. But that is a great idea, and I will look into that!
If you click on @karukgirl, which is me...you can read some of the posts I have made in the past that speak to packing tips, post surgery tips, travel tips, etc. What to expect. What to not expect. Where I stayed.
Otherwise I would be happy to re-share with you.
As to getting on a plane? You just do it. It's not any different except you may be slower and need more time. I had to fly four hours, and drive two and a half more after my heart surgery. It isn't fun, but totally doable.
