Hi! It seems like forever since I've had the chance to get on here. Yes, international travel is possible post transplant! We had the feeling it would be but Anna asked her docs and they said with time everything is possible. Then we found out from the diabetes transplant coordinator that she herself is a pancrease/liver recipient and has traveled all over the place. She told Anna that it took some planning but she knows where just about every transplant center is, at least all the ones close to the places she's traveled. She told us she'd fill us in when Anna is ready on what to do and how to do it. No leaving the country until after the first year we were told. So we'll see how it goes. Anna can't wait to go back to Europe.

Interesting to be told you have to plan. I just went. Let the doctors know beforehand and they said 'have fun, don't drink tap water and try not to kill yourself.' Then again I only went for two weeks and had enough meds for a month. I might end up going to europe this summer for anywhere between 2 weeks and 3 months, which I'm sure will require more planning but more so on the financial/what to do side than meds (which can be sent through the mail) and transplant worries. Also if you're traveling anywhere an unpressurized plane is kind of a no-no. High amounts of pressure on your lungs isn't a good thing when they've been replaced and sewn in, same with scuba diving; though both are certainly possible.
