I went to Europe for 3 weeks a few years ago and it was the most miserable 3 weeks of my entire life.

I love travel (or should I say that I used to love travel before I got TOS). For me, too much walking really makes my symptoms worse. I had migraines and very high pain the entire time.

That said, I'm glad you're going. We can't let TOS take everything we love away.

I rented apartments rather than stay in hotels. That allowed me to be in another room if I had a migraine and my partner and child didn't have to tip toe around.

I love walking when I travel but I should have taken taxis and saved my walking for museums, sights, etc. Instead I took the subways and walked too much before I even reached my destinations. So spend that extra money on cabs to make it easier to get places. That way you won't be wiped out before you get to your desired spot.

And lastly, I really had to pace myself. The first day I was in London and Paris, I did too much and it ruined the rest of the time. I wish I had done less those first days in each city so I would have been functional the rest of the time.

Good luck. I hope you have a great time. It sounds like you can tolerate walking better than I can so hopefully none of my problems will befall you.
