My brother just had debulking/HIPEC surgery here in Belgium. Has anyone travelled 11 hours like a month after surgery and had to get hydration solution or saline on a plane?

I flew three months after surgery to South America . I would suggest checking out H2Ors on Amazon. It’s a rehydration powder that you add to water - plenty of electolites, etc. best of luck 😎

Thank you for your help Riva, I’ll be sure to stock up on them. I did call the airline Cathay Pacific and they need us to fill a MEDA (Medical Assistance) form signed by doctors to allow the hydration.

If you've had a colostomy or ileostomy, you may experience some common food-related issues.
The good news is that you can avoid them with some small changes in your diet.
