Individuals with motion sickness experience dizziness, lightheadedness, and/or nausea while traveling, either by vehicle or on theme park rides.

Typical Symptoms of Motion Sickness

- Dizziness
- Nausea or vomiting

Diagnostic Questions for Motion Sickness
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Do you vomit when you recall past vomiting episodes?
- Are you currently dizzy?
- Are you feeling nauseous or have you been vomiting?
- Do you have temple pain?
- Do you have headaches or a heavy feeling in your head?
Treatment of Motion Sickness
Some people find it helpful to choose seats where they experience less motion sickness and to avoid reading or using electronic devices while traveling. Eating light meals, avoiding strong smells, and staying away from smokers can help. A doctor may prescribe medications that can help.

What People Say about Ubie?
Male, 30s

Male, 20s
My experience was great. I was worried, but the symptom checker helped me narrow down what it might be. I feel a little relieved compared to when I first started, and it gives me a starting point for what my symptoms could mean.
(Sep 27, 2024)
Male, 50s
The questions asked and possible causes seemed spot on, putting me at ease for a next-step solution.
(Sep 26, 2024)
Female, 40s
I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
