I'm so sorry, trottiii.

Given modern aircraft, you were probably at 6,000-8,000 feet "cabin altitude." This is about the same as visiting Denver and driving south to Colorado Springs. IMO, not likely to contribute.

Ascites is an unfortunate effect of some cancers.

Thank you. Should we have been warned about that prior to flying?
