Hi World Traveler,

I'm glad you're not waiting anymore to go the doctor. Although I'm not fond of going, I went the first thing last Tuesday when I woke up coughing, sniffling and with a fever. I got antibiotics for a severe case of bronchitis. A week later, I'm still sick and had to go back to the doctor again today. Stronger antibiotics and steroids now. Hopefully this will begin to clear up soon. I need some rest from this hacking! Hope you begin to feel better soon too!

Count me in as one of the sickies. Started on Thursday, while still on the boat--but now, a week and a half later, I've had enough and am heading off to the doc.

 But no big, and this is not what I'll remember from the trip!!

Yes,

I just checked the site too see if anyone else was under the weather....

Sorry to read that the answer is yes and with similiar symtoms.... ugh... 

It started for both my partner and I right after the cruise.  I'm going to the doctor tomorrow.... :-(   sounds like antibiotics might be the drug of choice..... 

Here's to a quick recovery and a good bowl of soup to everyone!  going back to bed now....

So sorry to read that yall got some kinda crud right after the cruise.....but I suppose that is better than during the cruise! ;) I would have sworn all that alcohol woulda killed any germs LOL

My voice is almost back, I think it was a sign for me to just shut up, and stop singing! ;)

 Get well quickly!

hugs and misses

jan,eh!

Just finished my third day of antibiotics and one of my ears is finally opening up to sound. It's amazing how quickly it all hit me when I got back. But here's some advice for the rest of you that are suffering: Get plenty of rest, drink lots of tea with honey and lemon, have some chicken soup, and make sure you wipe all the door handles with alcohol, especially if you live with a partner. Another tip: Throw away your toothbrush after a cold, and start a new one. Hope you all feel better soon.

Sorry to hear some of you are not feeling well, yet it is a normal thing that can happen to many a traveler. 

Keep up on all the fluids and such and you will all be feeling much better in no time. 

I am glad to stay that I am NOT feeling ill, yet I do feel like I am still on the boat, a bit of rocking, lol.

Take care and hope to see you all on another memorable trip!

I got sick on the way home and have a sinus infection - the folks on the plane with me - all from other cruises, said that many on their ships got some kind of viral infection over the course of the cruise (odd given all that purell...).

Off to bed and antibiotics.

Dear Randi,

Wow, I am so sorry that you are not feeling well.  Please rest and do as the Docs say.  That velvet voice needs tender loving care.  I have been working even though I have a fever and I am a bit concerned about 2 bites I have and didn't even get off the ship the day of worry, but not nervous enough to go to the Doc.  I know I have a bit of Bronco too, but I really feel it is from all the wind we were exposed to.  I will be thinking about you and hope you recover with the speedy work of the Z Pack, rest and maybe some Chicken Soup----need me to come make you some - Italian style?  ; )

Peace and Love ALL-Ways,

Katch

Awww, Randi. I'm sorry you are not feeling well. Get some rest and hide from germs.

By the way, Susan - How're the ears? You feeling better?

Fortunately, I'm as healthy as a horse. Would hate to miss work!  Suzanne and Samantha (my youngest) are playing hooky to go Christmas shopping tomorrow. Very tempting....
