Flying with a seroma
Hi peeps
I have a seroma on my chest wall, following mastectomy with flat closure just over 12 months ago. The seroma has been drained multiple times but keeps coming back - the saga continues...
I'll be going on a flight (for a holiday - yay!) on Saturday, and it's just occurred to me that I might have some additional pain or discomfort with the seroma due to the cabin pressure. Does anyone have experience with this?
Many thanks
Bec

Hi cranky_granny it was fine in the end. I didn't have any additional discomfort on the flight.
I haven’t had the flying experience with my seroma it will be interesting if anyone else can shed some light on the subject as well as I am intending to do a short flight in June.
i don't get mine drained Ive had a biopsy on it and some scar tissue removed which relieved it. It is now been 9 years with it it just gets looked at at each ct scan and the ultrasound on the rare occasion I have one.
