Working under a car gives me nausea so quick the intestinal part
doesn't get a chance to become an issue. My usual routine was work
twenty minutes, throw up for five, work anothey twenty, /ad nauseum/,
so to speak.
In my case it's creeping vertigo, struck first when I was about 55
years old. My doctor says there's no need to worry: no known cure. A
co-worker said her mother had vertigo 100% of the time, not just when
crawling (face up, right?) under cars. The mother takes Dramamine
before any occasion where it's im****tant to not fall down or throw up.
I've been trying it for the past few sway-bar changes: don't eat for a
couple hours before a session, take a Dramamine tablet half-an-hour
before. So far, still get some of the sensations, but no up-chucking
during a couple two-hour jobs.
Of course I know a person for whom entering a library building acts
like a laxative. Ten minutes inside and it's off to the bathroom. What
do you suppose /that's/ all about?
