flying

Motion sickness is the primary issue I deal with when I fly.

No problems with the actual flying. Got over the top hostile at all the flight delays and cancellations I'm a lot more irritable since LD.

I was wondering when this one was gonna come up. Being in the entertainment business I fly every weekend overseas. I can truly attest to it being very bad for you. Each time you fly you develop clots...while most people can get rid of them. Once in a blue moon you'll get a bad one and BAM ....DVT. A few of my other entertainment buddies had a scan done and low and behold they had clots all over their bodies...they're on a no fly rule for the next 6 months and on blood thinners. The stress on your body induced by flying is horrible. Have you ever seen what happens to a water bottle, that you were drinking at cruising altitude, once you descend below 5,000 ft? It's completely compressed!!!! This is what you have put your body through...it is the reason why your ankles swell. The reason why when you try to put your sneakers on again...you go hey? how come their so tight now? If you have to fly like i have to...then please make sure you take 2 aspirin..instead of the normal one and drink LOADS of water. Your immune system is already on the brink of total collapse....you'll just be adding fuel to the fire. For a normal person...a flight every once in the while is no big thing....for us...it's a take 2 steps forward and take 12 steps back!
