Re: Cruise booked for 2018
One and only cruise I went in put me off for life. Regimented visits when we docked in port, no time to really see a place. Constant food being eaten, no where to go for peace and quiet, surrounded by people 24/7 , and norovirus. Took me months to get over the norovirus.28-02-2018, 03:48 PM

Port excursions are entirely optional. Mostly I just walk off the ship and explore at leisure and at my own pace.
What you eat is entirely up to you. You can eat as little or as much as you like.
On the ships I have cruised with there are plenty of places for peace and quiet. Usually the library, or the Crow's Nest during the day or various lounges. In warm weather the Prom Deck is one of my favourite places to relax, read book, or just chill out. All comes down to the ship though. Some ships don't have a Prom deck.
Norovirus lasts typically 48 to 72 hrs. Doesn't last months so I would guess you had something else. You'd probably be dead if you have Noro for months.
Norovirus can be treated quickly and easily using Grapefruit Seed Extract. I recovered from Norovirus in just 12 hours using GSE and allowing my fever to run its course.
All comes down to what you know.
Research research research.

and it did take me several months to get over, I was very ill, hospitalised with it

you think so?

I wasn't the only one to come down with norovirus on that ship.

Worth also noting that when there is the slightest hint of Norovirus on board a cruise ship you NEVER EVER visit the buffet. That's the No1 place where the virus will be spread.
You only ever use your cabin toliet, keep hands off handrails and never directly touch lift buttons. All very simple and obvious measures but it's surprising how many uneducated people there are with hands everywhere. Those people typically get ill quickly.

Ship's Doc said I'd be ill for 72 hours and I was naturally confined to cabin. Doc said I had a fever and told me to take Paracetamol to bring it down.
I knew better [research !] so I refused the Paracetamols and allowed my fever to run which is vital to combatting bugs and viruses.
Drank water with drops of GSE in it which kill the bugs in minutes.
In total I threw up only 3 times. I was clear of the symptoms after just 12 hours, eating normally again at that point.
Conventional Big Pharma mantra won't tell you about such things. They would prefer you stayed ill as long as they can string it out so you buy their products and treatments.
To be ill with the virus for months you must have had a poor immune system. I would also hazard a guess that you took something to bring down the fever, paracetamols, aspirins or something with those in. That's a fatal mistake, if you did. It means the virus is free to multiply and replicate at will resulting in them quickly over running your body to the point it can't cope. The result is long drawn out bouts of illness and fatigue.
Cruises are brilliant holidays mostly but you take the good with the bad when you are at sea. Sometimes you get good weather sometimes not, sometimes calms seas, sometimes rough. The more you cruise the more accustomed you get to these things. Overall though the best way to travel imho.
