Re: An airline question

Carole:

After reading the other responses, I have 2 suggestions:

1)Contact the airline, perhaps via email, and see if there is any actual
WRITTEN policy. If there is and it is what you want to hear, print it out
and take it with you.

2) Send the required medications to your NYC people via UPS or Fedex. That
way, it will be there when you arrive. No airline hassle.

In a little more than 2 weeks I'm heading to NYC to meet up with my
cousins from England (who will be visiting there and then taking the QE2
back to England), and my niece and friends. I haven't flown since I got
CHF, so this will be an adventure in seeing what I can and can no longer
do.

In a supreme effort to simplify things, I am only taking a personal item
and a carry on. Since I have to take all my meds, do I have to take all
these prescription bottles? Once a week, I put all my meds into one of
those M-T-W type thingees. I have a note from my doctor stating that I
have CHF and diabetes. I really don't want to take up precious space with
all those prescription bottles, so what's the best way to do this?

Thanks,
Carole
