Love this! Fellow POTSie If you’re able to get like IV fluids before you fly it may help, also possibly keep an eye on your oxygen. When I flew without running my IV fluids and my pulse ox dropped to 61% in the air for a few minutes. So when I fly to Italy in March/ early April, I’ll bring a letter for the airline and they can administer oxygen in flight. I’m also going to get a blow up foot rest so hopefully I I can curl up. Also, due to Ukraine war, there are limits on temperatures the AC can be set at in Italy at least in warmer months. So if you can bring like cooling towels etc maybe it will help! Hopefully April isn’t too hot. Last time when I flew Home I felt better with the fluids. Also compression socks on plane. ❤
