@xanvankay, there are a couple of discussions in the group about flying with a brain tumor or after brain tumor surgery. You may wish to read the guidance and experience of other brain tumor patients in these related discussions with members like @pejiota4jack @teresaallen

- Is it safe to fly with a brain tumor? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/is-it-safe-to-fly-with-a-brain-tumor/

But your question is specifically about travelling to and spending time in a place that is at much higher altitudes than you are accustomed to. Am I right?

This was a question I had last year before I had my surgery. I have successfully made it home and appreciate you checking up on this question.

Yes

Thank you, but didn’t mean flying as planes are pressurised. I’ve done many flights since my brain surgery
