Are there any restrictions after Radiosurgery, ie Cruise Ship or Airplane travel?

Thanks

Not typically from a doctors perspective. There can be some risk of minor post treatment reactions such as fatigue or a random short vertigo occurrence, but for the most part it would not be a concern. There are a significant number of patients that fly to be treated at places such as Stanford and then fly home after treatment.

I did exactly that, flew to Stanford, from Europe and back. No problem, except a sore *&£@ from sitting to long, and that's not CK related. :)

Ciao, Lorenzo
