Travel and MS
Hey guys I’m planning a 3 week trip to Japan with my partner in April-May (so excited!!!) I wanted to ask you guys what contingency plans you have in case anything happens? I’m having my Ocrevus infusion a few weeks before we leave and I’m currently working on getting an ID card from the MS Society. What else would you recommend for travel with MS? I do deal with fatigue and light sensitivity a fair amount, my partner is aware and happy to take a break when I need. Keen to hear your tips and tricks also any suggestions for places to go in Japan, let me know! I’ve been before so have a few ideas but we’re really hunting around for great spots 💃🏼 thanks in advance!
Oh a trip to Japan sounds amazing! Definitely on my list for travels. I went to croatia a few months ago and at the time was struggling a bit with fatigue that was making my legs feel totally useless. travelling with someone who gives you permission to take a break when you need to makes such a difference and trying not feeling guilty if you need a more restful day. I took a stick with me for walking in case I needed it, which did come in handy. One of the best things was letting the airline know as they will give you priority lane access for going through security, dropping bags and boarding the flight. It was so good not having to stand in line for ages for things.
I would love to travel out of the UK, my worry is what is available at the other end. I.e shower chair, hoist etc. I hope that I'm not stepping on your toes Ebony. Im curious what others do about travelling
