Vertigo after cruise

We got off the cruise ship Sunday morning around 8am. At points on the 4 day cruise, the seas were rough. I understand you may still 'feel like you are on the ship' that day or so, but is it normal to still feel like this now almost going on 3 full days?

I still feel like I am bobbing around, and rocking. I've read online this may last for an extended period???

I cant take much more of this. Has anyone else had this for days after a cruise?

Do you feel nauseous? I dont personally have experience with this but my mother and husband have both gotten vertigo and for them it was non stop vomiting until they went to the doctor.

I've had it before, they call it land sickness instead of motion sickness. For me it usually lasts about half the length of a cruise (9 night I'll feel off for 4 days on land.)

Keep taking the bonine/dramamine for a few days.

It's happened to me before and sometimes lasts a few days. It should go away soon!

Yes- last time it lasted almost a week! Chat Icon

My mom once had it so bad she had to go to the doctor for anti-vert!

Try taking some dramimine before bed each night- that will help!
