I am on hrt and am flying in a few hrs. Have been going through a lot of stress and anxiety last month or so and the thought of the flight is terrifying me. Can I take a valium? Can anybody advise. I have to confess had a couple of glasses of wine and the odd cigarette recently just to help keep sane! Is the combo too much? Really appreciate any help 😀X

Hi Jenc, I am on hrt and take Diazepam on a " need to" basis and one of those occasions is when I'm due to fly.  2 mg or 2x 2mg usually takes the edge off the fear yet doesn't make me too drowsy.
Hope you get on ok🙂

What dose Valium has your GP prescribed and for what reasons?   Have you taken any previously so that you are aware of how you will feel, taking into account a pressurised cabin?

there is no way I'd get on a plane without a pint of guinness and a valium. Alcohol doubles the effect so you need less valium.

    no way I'd get into a plane, end of  - all those farty, smelly people who will want to use the loo when I need to 'go' 

What did you decide?
