Aspirin, is there anything it doesn’t do?

For years, I’ve had a serious problem with air travel. I’d get severe vertigo when I’d travel.  I’ve tried everything from Ginger to patches to decongestants.

But at long last, I’ve found something that helps: Aspirin. 

Take 2 before the flight and the anti-inflammatory effect seems to keep the vertigo from happening. W00t.

Brad,

For really long flights I take ambien and it knocks me out for the entire flight.  Of course, no good if you need to be functional during a flight :)

It'll keep you from stroking out, too.  LOL

Ibuprofen and acetaminophen never to anything for me.  But Extra-strength Bayer Back and Body is a gift from God.

 

Glad it helped on this trip.

What does it not do?  Your taxes. ;)

Now it'll make you deaf, to boot.  No such thing as a free lunch.  But at least you're not tossing yours in flight now. ;)
