My doc released me to dive in early Dec, and I did some easy dives with concrete steps, but didn't go for boat diving for a few more weeks. Continued the coumadin into January.

While I may have lost some use of the stricken vein that has cleared to a point, he says he other veins will expand to compensate. I do wear the support hose on long car drives and any plane ride. Wouldn't hurt for you to wear a pair on your flight, take your aspirin, and get up to walk to the head every hour. :thumb:
