Uneven changes in the air pressure against inner tubes.  Some people have problems with this even with minute changes in air pressure.  Do you get motion sickness on long car rides?  If so, you should see the doc because they may actually be able help alleviate the pressure changes.

Eat a large bowl of cereal a little while before setting off.\n\nA couple of bottles (1.5 litres or so) of plain water.\n\n3 or 4 cereal bars (Fruesli if you can get them) otherwise a few slices of malt loaf.  Also take a chocolate bar with you, but only use it as an emergency measure of you run out of energy towards the end of the ride.  Aim not to eat it.\n\nAbove all, remember to drink before you are thirsy and eat before you are hungry.\n\nEnjoy your ride.

Keep a box of saltines next to your bed. Before you get out of bed, eat a few. Even if you aren't hungry (would you rather eat or dry heave). Sit up and get out of bed slowly.\n\nDuring the day, keep crackers with you. Also ginger ale will get rid of the nauseousness because ginger is known to settle a stomach.

I'm really sorry to hear that - labyrinthitus is a horrid thing to have.  It's almost impossible to explain how miserable it is to someone unless they've had something similar.\n\nI had labyrinthitus for a year, with vertigo episodes for over two years.  It was triggered by a viral infection, so antibotics were useless - I had to wait it out, which was a complete nightmare.\n\nDuring that time, I learnt a few tricks to cope with it, which I hope you'll find useful.\n\n- If you are in the acute phase of the illness, accept the anti-nausea medication from the doctor.  I found Scopolamine particularly effective, although it did make me incredibly drowsy.  \n- Crystallised ginger really helped with the nausea and is a good way of getting over the sickness with taking strong medication.\n- Take your time getting out of bed in the morning.  The sudden change from lying down to standing can make you feel incredibly ill.  The same is true of getting up suddenly from sitting.\n- Try avoiding watching the television.  I found sudden camera movements and focus changes triggered severe dizzy spells.\n- Even if you feel OK, wait a couple of days to confirm that your labyrinthitus has definately passed before walking up or down stairs upright.  You may get a sudden dizzy spell and take a fall.\n- There are exercises that you can do to accelerate the compensation process following labyrinthitus.  One recommended to me by my ENT consultant was the Brandt-Daroff exercise for vertigo.  It had an amazing effect on my symptoms and I would strongly recommend it although beware that it is actually quite hard to force yourself to do it at the start.  The secret is to build the number of repetitions up slowly and listen to your body, but it can significantly reduce the length of your labyrinthitus attack.  A good website for a description of how to do the Brandt-Daroff exercises is below.

What you are describing sounds like a driving phobia. You can try and do what other people her are suggesting: practice. If you are going to take this problem on without professional help, let me suggest you do this gradually and not all at once. First, begin driving in low traffic situations. Note your anxiety at the beginning of the practice time (rate it 0-100). Then practice until you reach at least 50% less anxiety. Slow increase the intensity of the driving situation, and each time keep driving in that situation until you have at least a 50% decrease in anxiety. Once you have reached the most anxiety provoking driving situation try to continuously drive in that situation until you feel little anxiety (maybe a rating of 15 or 20). The continue to practice. The more you avoid this problem the greater it will become. If you can't do this on your own, you need to find a psychologist does cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Though stress management and exposure therapy, you'll over come this problem. CBT is a time limited therapy and will directly address this problem (as opposed to exploring your childhood). If you need to find a psychologist search the websites below.

Some people just can't handle the motion.  I am the same way.  Although, I notice that it's usually the carnival rides that make me sick.  They tend to go around and around over an over, and I can't do them.  The larger theme park rides usually have a larger area, and don't just go in a circle.\n     Maybe try not letting her eat alot inbetween rides..  Stick to the larger rides...   Good luck!

Most certainly you should see a different doctor.  And you should eat only healthy foods and take vitamins, as well as exercise.  And please don't even think about getting a driver's license until you figure out the cause and find a cure.

U might be suffering from travel sickness.  If u cant see the road moving outside of the bus it confuses the brain and makes u feel sick.  There are drugs u can take to stop this.  U might also be claustrophobic because of the cramped and crowded environment.  See your doctor!!  Also ask some of the other kids if they are experiencing similar things.  It may be that fumes from the bus are leaking into the passenger compartment.

Tell the truth.  You are thankful for her help but her driving scares the     out of you.  Don't be mean spirited just try to be charming.  Next time she picks you up, wear a helmet or life jacket,,,just for fun.  When you can, buy a car.

ok - safety advice aside - have exit strategies - where and when you may want to pull out.  have support people around to help give advice on the route.  if you are doing a strict downhill thing - start at the bottom and increase your start point as you get used to the speed and turns.  (make sure there are no cars!)  the faster you go, the more tipsy you become so make sure the condition of the surface is suitable.  other than that if it isn't just speeed you are after, the same principles apply as they do for surfing or skiiing - zig zags slow you down etc.  HAVE FUN

Drink water a bit more often. Stick to a trainig program that is fun for you and incorporate trunk twists while seated on a roman chair (if you have the means). Eat responsibly follow the food pyramid as often as you can.

Sorry you don't feel good.  Have you tried a gravol suppository to stop the vomiting thought I'd suggest it since you can't keep anything down.  Surprised no one else suggested it.  As others said drink lots of whatever stays down longest.\n\nHope you feel better soon
