Pick your travel companions carefully

Travelling with the wrong companions can turn your trip into a nightmare. This is especially so if you’re travelling with an ambitious traveler who does not understand your condition. Find a like-minded, easy going companion who has a big heart and understands what you are going through. Unfortunately, for those who are travelling for work or business, you may not have the luxury to choose who you are travelling with.

Travel light and do not over pack

Over packing is a common travelling mistake. Do not over pack extra clothes and other items which you don’t require. Pack the minimum and consider the services and provision of the hotel which you can benefit from such as laundry services and provision of towel and toiletries. Minimizing your baggage will help to minimize your exertion.

Carry your comfort kit

Since you suffer from muscle cramps, body ache, and fatigue and tired all the time, you have to make sure that you are travelling with all the comfort items that you enjoy at home. Get ready items like cooling mist, support pillow, spray bottles, essential oils and thermal pads for your travels. Be sure to prepare ample medications.

You don’t have to participate in everything

Yes, remember that you don’t have to participate in everything. Excuse yourself on certain days from some activities or sights when you have to. Let your travel companion know prior to your trip that you may not be able to join in on your bad days. Give your travel mate(s) the blessings to go ahead with the plans and enjoy.
