In my recent blog, I shared some handy tips to combat motion sickness while flying. I discussed how hydrating well, avoiding heavy meals before the flight, and choosing a seat over the wings can help prevent discomfort. I also touched upon the benefits of over-the-counter motion sickness pills and natural remedies like ginger. Lastly, I emphasized the importance of focusing on the horizon or closing eyes during turbulence to minimize sickness. Happy and healthy travels to all!
Traveling with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) can be challenging, but with proper planning, it can still be an enjoyable experience. First and foremost, consult with your doctor about your travel plans to ensure it's safe for you. When packing, make sure to bring enough medication and portable oxygen, if needed, to last the entire trip. Opt for direct flights to minimize layover stress, and request wheelchair assistance if necessary. Lastly, prioritize rest, hydration, and a healthy diet to help manage your symptoms and make the most of your travels.
