Dizzy Dame Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hi, Drink lots of water or gatorade and make sure you eat lots of salt. You might also do better if you wear compression hose (I know I do better with them). Let us know how it goes Hugs, Lauren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tearose Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Take water on the plane. Drink a lot of water. Also same suggestions as above...compression hose. You should try to do a little exercise in your seat or walk in the aisle a little. Wear comfortable pants and comfy shoes.As for the bracelet, you can order that from DINET.Have a good trip!best wishes, tearose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyMouse Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Yes, bracelets can be purchased on the DINET website:http://www.dinet.org/Also, for traveling, I do drink plenty of water, and if I'm having a bad symptom day, I also may ask for either a wheelchair or to be transported by an electric cart. I dress in comfortable clothing that breathes, and wear layers so if it's hot, I can take items off and keep cool, or if cold, I can keep the layers on to stay comfortable.Good luck with your travels.nina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDT Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 HI, DO YOU KNOW SOME TIPS FOR TRAVEL WITH POTS. SOME MEDICAL TRIPS. I AM GOING TO VIVIT NEW YORK, COULD YOU RECOMMEND TO ME SOME ESPECIAL PLACE? IN NEW YORK SALE THE BRACELET OF POTS?THAK YOU FOR YOUR HELP I was in NY last weekend. Did not ask for tips before I went and I regret it. You are smart. My plane ride was not good. But if I had good tips i'm sure it would have been better. Make sure you wear compression hose, order a wheelchair to travel throughout the airport. Have a good time and good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dionna Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 tell the flight attendant just in case. drink plenty of water. wear comfy clothes. be cautious of take off and landing, those are the hardest on me. remember to take your time when standing up. i fly every few weeks and sometimes they refuse to let me travel if i faint so be careful.dionna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
