hey guys, so with costo or tieze syndrome are you aloud to fly.. just wondering because if theres already pressure on the chest wouldn’t being in a pressurised cabin make it worse??
(please excuse any spelling mistakes)

Hi Kelly,

I’ve had no issues on the flight itself - its usually afterwards is the issue for me.

Also might be a good idea to put it on your travel insurance!

HI Kelly,I did a flight just before I found out I had costo. It was terrible, I thought I was having a heart attack! Recently had to travel again. This time I used a inhaler, ice pack , pain patches on the worst areas and took ALEVE just before flight. HUGE differance. Im sure knowing I was NOT having a heart attack helped.. lolHope you have s great trip!
