Motion Sickness Remedy?


Does anybody get motion sickness by watching a shaky camera-type TV show/movie? I recently watched an episode of Friday Night Lights I got nauseous because of the shaky camera technique they use. Does anybody have a remedy for this?

dramamine is a medicine you can take for motion sickness. I get it when watching certain shaky shows like that, flying, being in a car, roller coasters, etc. That stuff works great.

stand still

For three day motion sickness relief, I get Transderm Scop. It's a prescription only behind-the-ear adhesive patch.

just eat something salty..and drink a little bit of water and ly down for a while ....shud help

ginger tea, ginger snaps or ginger sweets...just ginger in general. it always helps with nausea.

Think about motion wellness. "Motion sickness is partly psychological," says Dr. Konrad. "If you think you're going to throw up, you're probably going to." Instead, turn your thoughts to something wonderful.

Leave nursing the sick to someone else. It's a common occurrence. You're on a fishing boat. Everything's going along fine until someone gets sick. You watch in sympathy, maybe even offer a comforting shoulder. Before long, you're the next body down. Then there goes another. It's the domino theory in action. As cruel as it may sound, do your best to ignore others who are sick, says Dr. Konrad. Otherwise you're liable to end up in the same boat.

Get your nose out of the joint. Bad odors such as engine fumes, the dead fish on ice in the back of the boat, or the sardine sandwich being made in the galley can contribute to nausea, says Dr. Konrad. Aim your nose elsewhere.

Butt out. If you're a smoker, you may think that lighting up can calm you, deterring motion sickness. Wrong. Cigarette smoke can only contribute to impending nausea, says Dr. Konrad. If you're a nonsmoker, hightail it to the nonsmoking section of the plane, train, or bus if you feel queasiness coming on.

Travel at night. Your chances of getting sick diminish when you travel at night because you can't see the motion as well as you can in daylight hours, says Roderic W. Gillilan, O.D., an optometrist in private practice in Eugene, Oregon, who has helped hundreds of patients overcome the problem.

Don't get friendly with unfriendly food. If certain foods don't like you when you're standing still, they're going to like you even less if you're moving. As tempting as plentiful meals may be during your travels, don't overindulge, advises Robert Salada, M.D., director of the Travelers Health Care Center at the University Hospitals of Cleveland, Ohio, and assistant professor of medicine at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.

Go ahead, get fresh. Deter nausea with a breath of fresh air, suggests Dr. Salada. In a car, open a window. On a boat, stand out on deck and take in the sea breeze. On an airplane, turn on the overhead vent.

Think before you drink. "Too much alcohol can interfere with the way the brain handles information about the environment and can set off motion sickness symptoms," says Dr. Konrad. What's more, alcohol can dissolve into the fluids on your inner ear, which can send your head spinning. Drink in moderation during plane and ship travel.

Get enough sleep. "Your chance of getting motion sickness increases with fatigue," says Dr. Gillilan. So be sure to get your usual quota of sleep before taking off on a trip. If you're a passenger in a car or plane, catching a few zzzzs while en route can help, too, if only to temporarily ward off potentially sickening stimuli.

Sit still! Your brain is already confused enough without your creating extra motion. Keep your head especially still.

Get up front and out ahead. In a car, move up to the front seat and focus on the road ahead or the horizon, says Dr. Tarnopolsky. This will bring signals from your body and your eyes into balance.

Better yet, get into the driver's seat. When you're behind the wheel, you're sensibly looking straight ahead, says Dr. Gillilan, and you have the added advantage of anticipating any quick changes in motion.

There are lots of placebo tablets on the market, about the only sure way to get over it is to convince yourself that the lack of motion your body is sensing while watching the video is real and valid.

I spent a lot of years in the Navy, also have a pilots license, though for me I loved the mixed up sensation of an unstable platform from as far back as I can remember.

A good way is perhaps to get someone to drive you around in a car, sit in the passenger seat blindfolded for as long as you can stand it. Tell yourself that what your body is feeling is fun, relaxing, and enjoy the experience.

That said, there were a few military guys that were sick even after years at sea.

My country is filled with lots of fun rides like disney world we got genting highlands here. As for nausiating ferry rides are everywhere in my country coz it is after all tourism year in Malaysia. I always go for outings and get sick myself, rather get sick I bring along a fresh citrus fruit like kaffir lime and prick it with my nails for freshness. I heard of anti vormitting pills yet I have never used them, I have had a ferry filled with barfing pasenggers though a hand towel spilled with cologne got me through the ordeal.Always have nice smelling stuff along in your nauseous rides.
