Mamavation Wednesday Post
I am thinking that perhaps I need a serenity prayer. Not the usual one though. More like a little strength to not over-indulge on the cruise this weekend. Do they have one of those?...
This summer I’m participating in the Dramamine® Road Warrior Alliance program. This program will help to educate about the causes, prevention, and treatment of motion sickness.
I have experienced motion sickness before. The first time I thought that I had food poisoning. I felt awful. I was nauseous, sweating, shaking and frantically trying to think of what I had eaten that could have possibly made me feel this way. This was the first cruise that I had ever taken and the boat was pretty small.
When I realized that I was the only one sick and that everyone had eaten the same thing, I figured out that I had motion sickness. I couldn't get to my Dramamine fast enough. After taking some Dramamine, I felt a little better.
The key for me was taking Dramamine every single day of the trip before my symptoms either started.
Dramamine engaged Dr. Mark Savant who leads Savant Wellness which is a San Francisco-based concierge medical practice focused on personal care and prevention. He is shares some great tips about how to prevent motion sickness and what to do once it starts.
Here are a few things that you can do:
With so many people being affected by motion sickness each year, many have no clue that is what they are experiencing and/or they don't know how to deal with it. The Dramamine® RoadWarrior Alliance site can be your your resource as a traveler if you or someone you know if suffering from motion sickness. You will also find a place to request your own free sample of Dramamine® plus expert travel tips.
