I had the worst experience of my life!
I was all excited starting the AFF course, did all the theory with my instructor for 7 hours and 2 days ago I did my first tandem jump. The ride in the plane was fine the Free Fall part of the jump whas awesome! When the canopy opened all hell broke loose. Is there a word to describe a feeling much more than nausea? Something like nausea PLUS 1000%. I felt such discomfort I actually passed out for a few seconds, I felt totally drained with no power and trying to focus and hold my puke. As soon as we landed I threw up two three times on the landing zone. I could barely walk and lied down for an hour. I couldn't even drive from the dizziness, it was a two-hour drive to home and I stopped three times to vomitt and take a half an hour nap in my car each time. Driving very carefully I made it home. Next day I still felt a bit dizzy and the day after that I'm okay but not 100%. I really wanted to progress in skydiving but I'm not sure I can make it anymore. I don't know if Dramamine will help and I'm really scared to try it and bear the same experience. Anyone else like me? any thoughts will help thank you!
