Week 3 Day 2, puke update

Me puking is not any fun to read about so I'm making one post about puking and another that is fun. You are currently reading the less fun one. Yesterday I went to physiology and they spun me in a chair for 2 rides 10 min each, which simulates a 1.4 hour flight. During the rides they have you make simple movements that change the fluid movement in your inner ear. They know which movements will do what so they talk you through ways to detect/control the impulses. Before this I thought the breathing tech was a bunch of crap, but I could seriously feel a difference as I did what they said. I still puked, but I learned, so it was a good thing. I was able to fend off the feeling a little bit today in my flight, but flight requires more mental capacity than I currently have and diverting any of it to controlling urges results in very poor flight. So I "hooked" (failed) the ride today because I gained/lost too much altitude during the pattern turns, and I still puked. Then I went back to the chair to puke some more, but I got a lot of good advice. The chair is a 3 day program then we'll re-evaluate the situation then. I can't tell everyone how much I appreciate the encouragement, at the same time I hope you aren't spending more time thinking about this than after you finish this sentence. I'm not, the IPs aren't (they've seen this 1000 times), and the physio Cap said he has too. those last sentences were targeted toward mom and Laurzapan.
