That sucks you got sick on your first cruise your first cruise!

We always bring cold meds, meds for upset stomach, headaches and sea sickness. We are always prepared just in case. Even if they do have in the gift shop it’s so expensive.

Always bring meds! And besides looks like you stopped in Mexico pharmacies all around there 😂 I think your cold soured your mood on the cruise

Sorry to hear that but don’t you bring some stuff with you just in case. I know I do! And they have pharmacies at the ports we go to. But I hope you’re feeling better.😳🤔🤒😷🤧

So there were no pharmacies in any port

I wouldn’t blame the cruise line or ship for being sick or not having medications onboard. It’s each person’s responsibility to provide their own medications. We always bring a variety of medications.

I always take cold medicine, cough drops, immodium, band aids etc. I've learned not to rely on any Cruise line to have medicine cabinet meds. Better to have on hand and not need it then to go scronging around. 💐
