Open water motion sickness

Greetings, i tried a long open water swim in 2012. I got sea-sick! Had to pull out of the event. Does anyone else have this problem and is there a good cure? Thanks. Steve

    I get wickedly motion sick on any open water ocean swim (or when surfing/flying/scuba diving/etc). Over time I've learned to meter out chewable meclizine so it won't impact performance. I buy the 100 ct. bottle from the pharmacist for about $7 and take one the night before the activity, then take half pills as needed to top up. Works very well for me.
