Feeling a little more irritable after crossing 8 time zones in a matter of hours? You aren't alone. Jet lag manifests itself in a wide range of symptoms - and a list of them will give you an indication as to whether those extra yawns are lack of sleep, or your body trying to catch up after a long flight.
The following is a list of symptoms that are often attributed to jet lag:
- fatigue
- insomnia
- anxiety
- constipation
- diarrhea
- confusion
- dehydration
- headache
- irritability
- nausea
- sweating
- coordination issues
- immune system weakness
- cough
- dry eyes
- dry skin
- earache
- blurred vision
- lightheadedness
- loss of libido
- swollen feet
Luckily, they don't usually all occur at once in one person.
