Only if the angiogram is done while you are flying. Considering that we don't even know the results of the angiogram or where you're flying to, I would suggest asking this to your doctor. He or she should know your history, results of the test, etc. Jeff > > Does an angiogram test,effect my ability to travel by aircraft, and if > > so for what reason?

That sounds like a question for the cardiologist doing the test. Do you really want to trust your life to someone you don't even know over the internet? Besides, the technology is changing over time. What might have applied two or ten years ago may not apply when you have your test. Or if the test is a different type.

If your cardiologist is a pediatrician like Jeff, it might be understandable why you would call your cardiologist a quack. Then one would question your wisdom for seeing this cardiologist in the first place. You remind me of the man who would denigrate his wife when it only reflects back on him twice as badly.

If I was asked, what are you doing tomorrow, I could answer, duck'n in to see the quack for a look see, and no one would think twice about it, maybe it's where you live that make a difference.

Because you will have a healing puncture wound in a major artery (femoral), it would be wise to refrain for at least 7 days from any travel such as driving an automobile (ok to be a passenger) or flying in an aircraft (lifting luggage and pressure changes could be hazardous) because of associated increased risk for acute arterial bleeding. Depending on other comorbid factors and how your angiogram goes, your cardiologist may extend this restriction additional days or weeks. In the Holy Spirit, Andrew <>< -- Andrew B. Chung, MD/PhD http://EmoryCardiology.com Of course if they manage to kill you with the angiogram, you can disregard the travel restrictions. Best bet...avoid angiograms! >> Does an angiogram test,effect my ability to travel by aircraft, and if >> so for what reason?
