I despise being in the car as driver or passenger because of terrible outcomes I have experienced. Causes me extreme pain, numbness, tingling to a point of getting migraines and throwing up. I limit moving too much and also not moving enough. It’s crazy.

Hi @cocodab, have you found any treatment or therapy that helps with your symptoms? I'm not keen on driving or riding in the car for long distances. To me it's kind of like sitting or standing for too long a time. I get wobbly if I do either to long. It's almost like I have to move a little bit to keep the joints flexible.

@cocodab
I completely understand! I go through the same thing. I don't know what your ailments are but is there a possibility that you might have a low pressure headache? That's what I have. Just being in an upright position for too long, bending over, etc. causes the headache to intensify, I get a lot of pressure behind my eyes, ringing in my ears, blurry vision, and then I get nauseous. The only thing that helps is to lay down flat and close my eyes.
