[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 674346, member: 88961"] Lynn, Lynn, Lynn - Please, PLEASE relax and enjoy your holiday. I have done several long-haul flights since diagnosis with no issues whatsoever, and what on earth do you intend to do if altitude us likely to raise your levels? Not go there? Sulk until you can leave? I'm sorry to appear grumpy, but if you must invest in worry, then please do it about things that are permanent features in your life, and which you can alter. The potential for any kind of blip over a few days, measured in a lifetime just doesn't deserve the headspace. When I was diagnosed, I was about to leave on the trip of a lifetime, so I had to quickly get my head around all this stuff and decide that this inconvenience was going to be just that and I had to find ways of ensuring my life, and that of those closest to me, would be impacted in the minimal way. This is the thinking you really need to be getting on with. [/QUOTE]
