Default Overseas surgery and medical expense tax deductions?

Hello All,

I am curious to hear if anyone has been successful deducting rather large amounts of medical.expenses when getting procedures overseas? In Virginia in order to deduct your expenses must be 7.5% (might be going to 10% this tax season) of your AIG.....

When I got my neck fixed a few years ago, I was able to deduct 15k off of my taxable income.... I wonder if it is possible to do a strait deduction in the realms of 35k?

Ken, ;-)
