Jessica_ Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 So I have not traveled by plane since my Hyoer-pots started. I am so nervous!! Any tips or tricks anyone could give me? Experiences during flight good/bad? I have my klonopin & propanolol but I’m still concerned how my body will react to the flight. 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outaker Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 I fly all the time! I take the clonazepam before the flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 @Jessica_ - I have flown to Europe twice since having POTS. I find that as long as I get IV fluids right before, have wheelchair assistance during transit onto the plane and drink plenty of water during the flight, wear compression hose ( which I usually cannot use due to Raynauds disease but need for long flights ) and get up every hour or so I do fine. I even have been able to tolerate the jet lag!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
