dealing with stomach pain on long flights
Every time I get on a plane, especially for those short 3-4 hour hops, my stomach turns into a knot. I end up feeling bloated and gassy, and honestly, it makes the whole trip pretty miserable. Now, I’ve got a 13-hour flight coming up next week, and I’m already dreading how my stomach is going to handle it. I keep thinking about being stuck in that tiny seat, with nowhere to go, and just hoping I don’t end up doubled over in pain halfway over the ocean.
I’ve tried skipping the in-flight meals and sticking to water, but that only helps a little. The last time, I even walked up and down the aisle a few times, but the relief didn’t last. I’m starting to wonder if it’s something about the cabin pressure, or maybe the food they serve on planes just doesn’t agree with me.
Has anyone else had this problem on long flights? Is there a certain snack or drink that actually helps, or should I just bring my own food? I’d love to hear if anyone’s found a real solution, because I can’t be the only one who feels like their stomach is doing somersaults at 35,000 feet. It’s frustrating when everyone else seems to be napping or watching movies, and I’m just counting down the hours until I can get off the plane.
