Hello everyone. I haven't posted a message in a long time. But, I need
some help. As much as I don't want to I must take a plane trip from FL
to CA for an emergancy. I was wondering if anyone has any tips that
would make my flight go easier. Even though I was Dx a few years ago I
have never been able to take a flight without the lovely embarrassment
of vomiting during the flight. I have not been back in a plane for
about 15 years and I am very nervous about it. On top of the reason I
must do it is very stressfull alone. My father is dying and I must go
see him. Needless to say, I'm sure the attacks will be in full swing.
Thank you. Kat
