ralphy saw the sea in a book once

I've not dived a great deal and have only been on one very enjoyable liveaboard in Thailand thus far.  That trip taught me one or two things about what I should consider taking with me if I am to embark on an extended (especially offshore) dive trip.

I suffered greatly with headaches in the last couple of days of the trips, as well as skinning my heels on ill-fitting fins when I did not have bootees!  Additionally I saw a couple of people with ear infections and one Japanese guy with a funny looking rash on his arm and hand because he insisted on carressing a reef.

Now, I had sod-all with me to deal with any of these things and would certainly not make the same mistake in the future.  

So what would you all put in your medical kit when going on a trip?

Answers on a postcard!
