Hello coral12 .

I have the same disease as you do, diagnosed four years ago. Our condition is quite rare, but there are some who have it on this forum.

As for flying, you'd have to ask your doctor. When I was in the earlier stages I could fly without oxygen. Now, I have to have oxygen. I got approval from my doctor. It's much better to be safe, and I don't think we are equipped to give that kind of advice.

Best wishes,

Cas xx 🌸

Hi Coral. 👋😊

It's good you are active. Try and keep that up. Everyone's diseases are quite unique in terms of progression. So, please don't think too much on the gloomy side. Enjoy, enjoy and enjoy 😄your time you trip to Canada, but please do ask your doctor about flying. *Hugs* xx 🌸
