Have only been on a plane once and it was no longer than 2 hrs. I get motion sickness horribly and am wondering why the heck I'm going to do for 4.5 hrs on a plane! Does anyone know if I will have movies/tv to watch? I'm flying from jax to atl, then atl to San Diego. I hope to sleep but I don't think my nerves will let me. I can't read or I will be nauseous. Going to ask my surgeon If there is anything I can take being I'm having surgery that same day. Was thinking Tylenol pm, or benadryl. Any ideas or advice would be welcomed!

You could ask for a scopolamine patch, it will help with motion sickness, and nausea. You put it behind your ear, and its good for 3 days. My surgeon routinely orders them for all sleeve patients to help with post op nausea.

My pcp gave me a script months ago and I never filled them. Just called the pharmacy. It will be ready today! Thinks for reminding me! lol

When are you having your surgery?

Tijuana mx. Tomorrow!

I just flew from Philly to San Diego with US Airways last week & there was no TV screens on the plane. I thought there would be as it was a long flight!

Also on the way home, my Dr gave me compression stockings, so I wore them & made sure to get up & walk about the plane about 3 times, to prevent blood clots. I did also want to upgrade to business class, but it was full. Economy was fine though.

I sure hope my lap top won't be a problem

On the plane. I was hoping to watch

Movies if the plane has no

Tv's. Trying to pull an all nighter so i can sleep through the flight! We shall see. Leaving home at 4am

I saw someone next to me using a laptop to watch movies, once they announce it was safe to turn on electronic items.
