| dc.subject | Objective: To search and report extraordinary symptoms of motion sickness (MS) which have not been classically described. Study Design: Prospective study. Setting: Tertiary referral center + state hospital Patients: Thiry-four MS patients were included in the study. Of these, 32 were female and 2 were male. Intervention(s): No Main Outcome Measures: All patients were asked to fillout a questionaire by face to face conversation for their symptoms. Severity of MS symptoms in general were assessed by visual analog scale. In addition, factors precipitating MS symptoms were also searched. Results: All patients reported to have nausea. In addition to classical knowledge, atypical symptoms decleared by the patients were intolerance to smell, feeling of nausea in the head, intolerance to sound and difficulty in concentrating on conversation. Average VAS score for severity of MS symptoms was found to be 7.3. Relaxing of the symptoms when the eyes were closed was noted as an important feature. Sixteen (47%) reported no symptoms of MS while driving a car. The most important factors leading to the beginning of MS symptoms were curving road, reading, head movements, talking, and the smell of gasoline, respectively. Conclusion: The clinical picture of acute MS may include the symptoms other than the classical symptoms like dizziness, nausea, pallor, cold sweating etc. | |
