That is not very reassuring for the passengers. Time to start screening these pilots when they come on duty prior to them boarding the aircraft, to ensure they are fit for duty.

My bro and mom have both had DVT. Do you know if it's hereditary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel it when I do not take my vitamins. I just do not have as much energy. I take Centrum Silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of vitamin tablets are bound together with food grade lacquer. If a person has dietary issues or is older their digestive processes can be an issue that makes also for difficulty in dissolving the tablets due to that lacquer binder. Sometimes switching to a capsule is ideal because those and usually the best are from specialty stores do break down. And that insures absorption of all the nutrients you're needing to supplement. Take a break though. That's what the adviser to a friend told her. Take a few days where you don't take any vitamins. Let what has half life and is already working in your bloodstream process. While the absorption process that piles on more to work with is let to rest. Drink lots of water but not with meals. One of the worst causes for bloat, gas, upset stomach after eating is drinking fluids while eating. It makes a soup in the stomach. All the food floats and the digestive breakdown enzymes can't attach and do their thing as easily. Sip very little water while eating. Just to clear the tongue say between portions . But don't drink. Wait a half hour after you're finished with your meal before drinking anything. See how you feel in a day, and on and on as you practice that every meal. I did and I lost the blah feeling after a meal and I didn't feel so poofy. Yes, poofy. Not gassy. Poofy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
