How many days do you "rock" after your cruise?

[Fancypants!]

I was off the ship on Sunday and it is now Wednesday and I'm still rocking back and forth in my chair. :p

Used to take a week or so. Sadly, it does not happen anymore except after transatlantic cruises.

Interesting, doesn't happen to me anymore either. Maybe a TA is the answer! Used to take me several days at least.

I usually am still swaying for a few days but worse was two weeks. Depends on the time of year and if it is allergy season. It also seems to make a difference whether I had to fly to the port or was able to drive. An antihistamine makes a difference for me.

I've swayed up to a week. I has to do with your balance. Your brain has to adjust to being back on land.

I love the post-cruise sway. I'm usually good after a few days, but I havent been on anything longer than 7 nighters in a long time. If Bob is still swaying after a TA, I can't wait to see what happens to me after my first on Jewel next year!

I usually feel like I am on a moving sidewalk for 2-3 days!

30 Hours.

I haven't had it the last several cruises but it used to be 2 or 3 days.

None, I guess I need to start drinking after the cruise!

[waterlegs]

I was surprised to experience swaying at all and had it ,only when I sat, for about a week. During the cruise we felt no sway until the last day.

Only happened to me after our first cruise - mostly when my eyes were closed (like in the shower). My husband still gets it if the cruise was particularly rocky - it will last up to a week. He does have ear problems.

I would expect no less from someone called Fancypants! ;)

[BecciBoo]

I never had that feeling, but DH has it every time for about a week. Neither of us ever get nausea.

Are you sure it's not just a rocking chair that you're sitting in?

[George C]

Been cruising for 40 years have not had rocking in last 30

[OCruisers]

At least a few days .... :rolleyes:

[shofer]

Not at all, unfortunately. No residual effects, ever.

No problem on the ship, no problem off the ship. Had one really bad seasickness event on a fishing boat many, many years ago. Not once, not ever after that.

[RN4Nsy]

I do for several days afterwards. I don't get seasick ever. However when I get home I need meds because I have it then.

[Sasksilver]

I've never been sea sick, but I do suffer from vertigo. I find when I come home that swaying feeling can last for 2-3 weeks, even a months sometimes. It doesn't really bother me too much except when I'm sitting still (as someone called it stillness sickness). I figure it's a pretty minor problem to be able to cruise.

[Coralc]

Oddly, I only sometimes notice it after a lengthy cruise when I am in the shower at home for a couple of days. Bob, is correct, I don't have it much anymore.
