Hi Bill, You can travel. Jeff is on tx now, We just came back from Richmond Race, which was about 400 miles away. I just have a small bag for his daily meds that he takes, and take another few days worth just in case. If we go over shot day, we take that along also. You need a small ice cooler, since it needs to be cold. I also have a list of all meds he is on, dose etc. just in case something were to happen and he needed to go to hospital. I think it is good to get away for alittle and do something different. You will have a good time.

I

can’t speak to the cirrhosis questions, but I would think there are no

issues unless you’re decompensated and have the brain fog that might get

you lost or you’re on lactulose and need to be close to bathrooms! Lol

As

for tx, I had to drive from north to south GA frequently to visit my son in jail & military school. I always took someone with me

to help drive because I got uncomfortable in one position for a long time and

because of the fatigue. However, there was one night when they evacuated

the school for a hurricane and although I had mom with me, she doesn’t

drive well at night, I ended up driving straight thru both ways in the pouring

rain with no problem but exhaustion at the end.

Travelling shouldn't be any problem. I flew to Vegas a few years back myself, cirrhosis & all. Just stay out of the heat & sun as much as possible, stay away from the booze & eat regularly. Make sure you stay well hydrated too. Other than that - HAVE FUN. That's important for us all.
