Review summary

Well, the illness i've got on board disrupt my vacation, we had tours booker in london which we couldn't do and we lost our money, because i couldn't leave the hotel room, I was in bed for 2 days. When I returned to canada I went to emergency twice, i'm still sick after 20 days, i did not eat for 13 days and i have more tests to do. Ct scan on monday I should know more in a week. I had a full physical 2 days prior to my trip and everything was normal, so it is something i've pick up on the ship!!

We were on the Jade from 10/27-11/6 and was late getting in our rooms due to the sanitizing the areas. All halls were closed and everyone had to just stay in the main areas.

I got ill on plane from France and lost hearing in one ear for more than a year. At first docs didn't think it would come back. Thank goodness it did. So, no telling where you got bug. They can take like 7 to 10 days to incubate and cause illness. I hope you get well soon.

Equally possible you picked up something on the plane. Seems I get something every time I fly. Airplanes are notorious for spreading germs.
