Haha. Lovely. XD ive been on a plane twice since becoming ill and its my tachy that gets to me. Plus taking off and landing. I have to pop my jaw and swollow constantly. My mom usually hands me a piece of gum but since my operation on my wisdom teeth, it has become hard to chew anything for long period of time. So i usually hug the life out of my small purple monkey i bring with me 😛 but ive never fainted. But then again, i think its my tachy stopping me from fainting. Im on atenolol now and have been working with claritin, which is doing nothing for me so ill get reactine. :3 im on zantac 150mg 2 times a day. Will that make pressure worse if im on atenolol trying to keep my heart rate down? The only thing i need to do is get off atenolol and get on diamox because i think a lot of my tachy has to do with the pressure. Ive been contemplating if what i have is hyperadrenic pots or not. Ill make sure to be testing to see if thats the case. I hope i can get all this testing done before april.

Also ive had reactine before, but i dont find it ever lasts 24hrs like it says when im sneezing away with allergies. It says i can only take 1 a day. Will that be enough for mast cell issues? 😛
