Hi -
I assume you are planning to wear a sleeve as a "deterrant" to fluid build up in a pesssurized cabin??
No mastectomy for my - lumpectomy, but I did have 18 (8 badly positive) nodes removed because of high grade and bad sentinal node result. Not long after second surgery I took a trip to California (from WA state) and my treatment team made no mention of me using a sleeve. In the 3 years since my surgeries I have flown a lot (just came back from Florida) and never had the slightest hint of lymphedema.
I do exercise with 4 pound weights to keep my circulation healthy. Takes only a few minutes every other day.
