Motion sickness

[Mary]

Personally i swear by Stugeron, without them even the mildest swell and I'll looking distinctly green and getting ready to lean over the side. having taken it I can sit there and smile and partake in tea and soup whilst others are heaving the rest of thier lunch up over the side with a big smug look on my face as they declined the tablets earlier.

Do try them out of the water before though, just to make sure you don't get drowsy on them.

hearing then words "DON'T YOU DARE!!" from SWMBO, when I feel like chucking up after a night of lager/curry usually stops me being sick.Wonder if I took her out on the RIB if she would have the same affect when Mal DeMare hits me....

hi there
I take one boot's sea sickness tab,just before getting on board does the trick,and they don't make you drowsy,and you don't need to drink anything,as it melts on your tongue!!

Hi Kevin
How did you get on this weekend?
A friend of mine has had terrible problems with seasickness and we have almost been through the book with him!
You might like to consider trying Scopolamine patches. These are the little patches which you stick behind your ear and the drug is absorbed into the body through the skin. I think they are only available on prescription. They are usually put on the evening before a dive. My friend has found that they have transformed his boat diving.
A warning though these, like most seasickness medicines, may cause drowsiness and often a dry mouth. Use them on dry land to see how you are affected first and don't dive if you get side effects from them.

I use 'Travella', it's a homeopathic remedy.
I've convinced myself it works and it does, without any side effects.
I'm just working now on what my mate does, he cut out the middleman and just convinced himself that he did not get seasick - worked for him.

Hi Guys AND Girls

This weeknd was pretty calm dived the Persia, so before i got on the boat tried the wristbands from Boots, how they work i have no idea but damned if i was going to take them off

We did have a very sickie person on the boat so i gave him the Stugeron, they worked as well until half way back to shore when he threw up, perhaps they wear of if you have severe sea sickness.

So it was Bands 1 pills nill

Thanks again to everyone for there tips
