what about skydiving?

AnnetteS

I would like to jump out of an airplane again, but I am concerned about the quick change in air pressure.  I did it one time and had to pop my ears a couple of times during the desent. Wearing a sleeve, would this be considered more of a risk than flying in a pressurized plane?  Or should it be okay since we don't really go up super high?

Wow, I wish you the best! I hope you get answers, it is good to see someone out there living their life!

I work on a torch as an artist, I am too old to change jobs, but when i posted, there was no one else posting back to me,so I just wanted to say hello and wish you the best in following your dreams!

Annette, if you do a search for the word skydiving and limit the search to the lymphedema forum here, and "all time", you'll find several posts about successful skydiving from some of the women here, along with a few suggestions for doing it safely.

Enjoy! Let us know how it goes!

thanks crystal, I'm not sure where you posted, and I'm sorry no one responded to it.  People (not me :-(  ) are usually good about responding to posts with questions.

Thanks Binney, but my search thingy seems to have vanished... I'm off to find it :-)

I found it!!! I was looking at the top, but I found it at the bottom of the page :-)
