Anyhow, I've been in the aviation business for over 5 years now, without beeing to airsick, but lately after this incident I feel airsickness on more or less all flights now...
Do you think Tinnitus has something to do with the airsickness and do tinnitus heal it self with time? Any experience on the subject!!
It's not really annoying, just at bedtime etc..
Thank you!!
When you get airsick is it associated with vertigo or just nausea? What happens when you eat food? Also, do you get any headaches? One thing I heard of is pilots chewing to much gum actually swells the jaw muscles by the ear causing some of the mentioned symptoms. Not headaches though.
