land legs
it took the astronauts some time to regain their land legs after the long space mission .
stryker, awkward on his land - legs, stumbled and fell in an ill - calculated attempt to hoist himself hastily back into the vehicle .
get together to spend an afternoon on land & sea, become immersed in water, while more activities await on dry land. dave' s cast of characters land & sea party makes that all happen .
just a little note, if your land legs don' t come back by monday, go see your doctor. i had a similar problem after my first cruise - but i had an inner ear virus. it lasted about a month before my land legs got back. had to do drops several times a day .
i always get my sea legs very quickly. my land legs are a bit more reluctant to come back. a trick i learned few years ago was to take bonine the day we get off the ship and for the next few days after. it works perfectly !
sea legs was an arcane [ 1 ] and divine magic spell that could give a creature the ability to keep its balance and maneuver on board a vessel being tossed by waves. the reverse of this spell, called land legs, removed this ability, making it difficult and possibly dangerous to attempt any action on a heaving deck. as a healing effect, sea legs also prevented sea sickness.

everyone who suffers from sea sickness dreams of' getting their sea legs'. but what does this actually mean, and how do you do it ?
in mdds, the symptoms * may persist for a month (or more), and possibly many years. this differs from the very common condition of
land sickness
( sea legs) that most people feel for a short time after a motion event such as a boat
the knee is a joint, actually the largest joint in the body. your knees provide stability and allow your legs to bend, swivel, and straighten .
some people after spending a long time in very rough conditions become
land sick
the moment they leave the boat for a while .
getting your sea legs means that your brain adjusts to the rolling and pitching of the boat or ship, learning to compensate for it, and ultimately experiencing the motion as' normal'. therefore, your symptoms of sea sickness disappear without need for any further treatments or medication. you are then said to' have your sea legs' .
ligaments are rope - like cords that bind bones to bones or cartilage to bones. there are four ligaments in the knee that help connect the femur to the tibia and keep your legs stable :
in order to cast this spell, the priest had to touch the person or creature being targeted. the effects lasted an hour for every level the priest had achieved. sea legs gave a person or creature the sense of balance that normally required years of sailing experience to develop, such that they could move about on a vessel in high seas and not be subject to sea sickness. if cast in reverse, land legs caused the target to lose this ability such that all movements and actions could result in being knocked off their feet. and made it difficult to stand back up.

just got back in from a day sail. winds out of the south at 20 knots gusting to 30. it was a great day to sail. it takes me and the wife about 5 min to get our sea legs and we don' t have any issues with getting our land legs back. however after the sail today we both sat down at our own computers at the same time and both noticed we still felt like we were on the boat after looking at the computer screens. weird. we normaly don' t feel like we are still on the boat even after spending days on it .
finally getting your sea legs feels fabulous! but beware the flip side - now that your brain has adjusted to conditions at sea as' normal' you may need another period of adjustment when you disembark and return to firm ground. the' drunken sailor walk' is a common sight amongst those returning from a cruise, and fortunately for most people it is short lived (no more than 24 hours). however, a few people will have trouble readjusting to life on land, and experience more prolonged land sickness (in other words' reverse sea sickness'). medically this is known as mdds (
i' ve had times where i get
land sick
so bad that i' m about to barff on the docks. but back on the boat i' m fine ...
we are very proud of our rum. there. we said it. it is distilled in small batches using american cane sugar. the result is a classic puerto rican style rum—smokey, rich, spicy—perfect for making mojitos, daiquiris, caipirissima (same as caipirinhas but made with silver rum) or classic cuba libres (rum and coke). although, if you asked us, as with all our spirits, land legs is delish just on its own .
... we' ve been back since sunday, it' s now friday and all of us are still feeling a bit wobbly, it gets better by the day, but we had no idea that getting your sea legs meant giving up your land legs as much as we have... ... how long does it usually take? by the way, we' re all first timers, so we don' t have any previous experience to draw upon... ... thanks... cheers, the imagineers ncl cruise on the wind - aug 27 / 06, it was great, i' ll miss the wind. upcoming oceania cruise on the insignia - apr 28 / 07
i have some good news though; i think my land legs are slowly coming back. i don' t feel it much today. every once in awhile i feel some movement, but for the most part i think it' s going away. it has been exactly a week ago today that i got off the ship, so i guess that' s not as bad as it could have been. thanks to all of you for the tips! i' m just glad i wasn' t the only one .
chazelle’s first film, guy and madeline on a park bench, stars a jazz trumpeter. his second film, whiplash, stars miles teller as an ambitious drummer who’s obsessed with jazz. his third, la la land, stars ryan gosling as a man who wants to resuscitate jazz music in los angeles like it’s bessie smith slowly gasping her last breaths outside a mississippi “whites only” hospital. gosling isn’t just obsessed with jazz, he’s convinced that the genre is on its last legs and it’s his sole purpose in life to restore it to glory .
seriously, tho... . i have pretty much lost the feeling, just a little unsteadiness every once in a while. and it' s been alomost a whole week! the bonine may be the ticket... . my one friend on the cruise took bonine, and never had
land legs
.... her boyfriend didn' t take it, and he' s still swaying a little too. i didn' t take it either. try it... . after you do an ept, that is! !
when you get back to land, your brain still has these senses decoupled, and these independent, multiple sensory attacks can once again lead to conflicting interpretations. it is this conflict of interpretation (tetris effect ?) that feels like a rocking motion .
depending on how long you are aboard and in what conditions, it can take days or a week or two to adjust back to land. when we moved off the boat for a while this past fall, it took about a week, i think .
unfortunately, getting your sea legs on one trip doesn' t guarantee that your problems with sea sickness are over. the tolerance that you have developed is likely to be for the unique movements of that particular boat or ship. so unless your next trip is on the same, or very similar, vessel, your brain is likely to need another period of readjustment. this means that you will probably have to earn your sea legs anew on each trip. at least the time required for this adjustment is likely to be shorter than last time, and many people do report that their symptoms become less and less severe with increased exposure to boats and ships .
the wayward side effect of casting gosling as this jazz whisperer is that la la land becomes a trojan horse white - savior film. much like matt damon with ancient china in the great wall or tom cruise in the last samurai, in la la land, the fate of a minority group depends on the efforts of a well - intentioned white man: gosling' s character wants to play freestyle jazz instead of the christmas jingles he’s been hired to perform because, damn it, if the people can’t hear real jazz, then it’s going to cease to exist .
that is what we around here call pcd: post cruise depression when we went on ncl dawn last year, i was holding onto walls while walking down the hallway for days. it didn' t completely go away for 6 weeks! !! i have vertigo so i' m sure that compounded it. it' s funny, though, it was completely gone after i booked another cruise... ... hmmmmmm... . seriously though, some folks say to take an anti - motions sickness med to help get your land legs back. others will say book another cruise (like me! ! !) anyway, happy sailing !
flying a drone in a civil environment with clear skies can eventually take a toll on a drone. but flying a drone in less than desirable weather such a storm with strong winds can greatly impact the life expectancy of this life - saving hardware. this became evident when a bad landing caused one of the landing legs of the drone to break rendering it useless! although a factory manufactured replacement leg is cheap, only costing a few bucks, the material is a relatively flimsy plastic which would most likely break during the next bad landing. so, the carova land rescue team and the carova sea rescue team got together and decided we could make a drone leg better than the original .
i certainly have mdds as well after living aboard for years. last winter on land, i noticed my sense of balance was off. it always felt like i was walking around on the boat. however (luckily), once i started moving in any way other than walking, my balance was fine. so fortunately, my snowboarding wasn' t affected !
i took natural dramamine with ginger in it and i had a couple alcohol shots while i was on my cruise, but now i' m here on land for 4 days and still feel like i feel the emotion of the boat rocking back and forth. that' s what i feel like when i am walking. have i done something wrong by mixing the two things ?
.... in mdds, the symptoms * may persist for a month (or more), and possibly many years. this differs from the very common condition of
land sickness
( sea legs) that most people feel for a short time after a motion event such as a boat cruise. * the symptoms most frequently reported include: a persistent sensation of motion usually described as rocking, swaying, or bobbing; difficulty maintaining balance; extreme fatigue; difficulty concentrating (
brain fog
); dizziness, headaches and / or migraine headaches, confusion, and anxiety. many patients also describe ear symptoms such as hyperacusis, tinnitus ,
fullness
, pain, or even decreased hearing. cognitive impairment (
brain fog
) includes an inability to recall words, short term memory loss, and an inability to multi - task .
the way you move also can help you prevent knee injuries. if your sport involves a lot of jumping, make sure to bend your knees when you land, which takes pressure off of the acl. do you have to cut laterally or pivot frequently in your sport? use your joints to crouch and bend at the knees and hips, reducing your chance of a ligament injury .
damien chazelle likes jazz music. but more than blaming his musical obsession for la la land, i suppose i can blame carl van vechten. it is, after all, van vechten' s 1926 novel nigger heaven that fueled white interest in the harlem renaissance and led to the gentrification of the neighborhood’s nightclubs and brownstones. white interest in harlem and jazz music became widespread and likely indirectly led to chazelle’s father’s interest in jazz. after a november screening of la la land, chazelle regaled a crowd at the chateau marmont with a story about how his father influenced his love for the genre: “he was a jazz obsessive and made sure that i listened to it... . i love jazz and i grew up playing jazz drums, so it’s always been the music i’ve felt most connected to. ”
i don' t usually have a problem adjusting to being back on land - what i do have a problem adjusting to is having to get my wallet out each time i buiy something. a person gets used to just signing their name! i still remember my first cruise, getting off the ship, arriving at the airport, buying a candy bar - and it took me a full minute to realize the clerk wanted money! boy was my face red! !! made me want to get back on the ship !
it certainly varies for me - - some times i feel the land rocking for days, and other times not at all. i kind of like it, since if i close my eyes i get to pretend i' m back on the boat (although i do remember waking up in a hotel bed in honolulu, holding the edge of the mattress in a death - grip and convinced that i was about to be pitched onto the floor). what is strange to me is that after a long passage i sometimes feel completely solid once on shore, but then motion starts up a day or two later .
i took me a good 5 - 6 days to lose that feeling of the motion of the ocean. however, i wore the patch when i was on the ship, and took it off the second we were on land. i have since been told that it is best to leave it on for a few days so that the medicine can slowly leave your system as the patch loses effectiveness. some people wind up taking a bonine, dramamine, gravol or meclazine just to get rid of the wooziness. it will definitely disappear, but once it does, you know it is time to start looking for another cruise! ! !
on our first cruise, i didn' t feel any after effects. on the second one, i had that feeling for a day. it seems to get last longer after each subsequent cruise. after our last trans, it wasn' t completely gone for about 2 - 3 months. toward the end of the time, the feeling comes and goes. i love the rocking motion of the ship and am not ill at all. since i am naturally clumsy on land and seem to be perfectly okay on the ship, hubby insists that my equilibrium is normally off - kilter so that on the ship with the swaying i am normal .
next, the two boxes are seperated and the object is removed. because the casting sand is sticky and will retain its shape, when the two box are brought back together a hollow cavity exist in the shape of the object we will cast. pour holes and vent holes are made and molten hot aluminium is poured into the pour hole and fills up the cavity. once the aluminium cools and hardens the aluminium can be safely removed from the sand. if all goes well then the new cast should be nearly identical to the original. many thanks to joe cloonan from the sea rescue team for his knowledge and casting skills! ! as it turned out, land & sea rescue teams did quite an impressive job 🙂

i' ve had times where i get
land sick
so bad that i' m about to barff on the docks but back on the boat, i' m fine... the wife says its
pay - back
time for laughing at her while she had her head over the side. . she used to feel bad for being sick the first day out on a long trip but we stopped into the west marine' s book store, in sausalito, a couple years ago and while talking to the woman who ran the place, the woman told her to be grateful as when she went out for a long passage, she was sick for the first five days. the wife dosen' t feel so bad anymore... ...
if this sounds exceptionally nitpicky, my gripe certainly isn’t eating me alive in a season populated by such great films as moonlight, hidden figures, and fences. but you should also know that la la land opens with a stunning and visually masterful dance sequence sung by an incredibly diverse group of los angeles denizens — but after the song concludes, we immediately cut to stone in her car on the way to an audition and her love story with gosling begins when he honks his horn at her on the freeway. those people of color who gave it their all in the opening sequence, perhaps to remind oscar voters of that hamilton musical they love so much, are quickly whisked away so the caucasian sing - along can begin. it’s hard to be upset when the whiplash (yeah, whiplash) is so immediate. frankly, it’s fucking hilarious .
chazelle’s aforementioned first film, guy and madeline on a park bench, actually stars a black man (jason palmer) and a latina woman (desiree garcia). but that was the debut indie film of a harvard graduate, not a studio film with a $ 30 million budget. why tell the story more authentically when you can just try to recreate gosling and stone’s film chemistry (presumably from crazy, stupid, love and not the flop gangster squad)? according to variety, chazelle spoke to michael b. jordan about portraying gosling’s role at one point, but that possibility imagines lionsgate either producing an oscar - contending film about two black people struggling through the world of jazz music rather than slavery or jordan courting a white actress for a modern update of save the last dance. both scenarios seem implausible. an advertisement for van vechten’s 1926 novel in the new yorker once asked, “why go to harlem cabarets when you can read nigger heaven? ” perhaps now you could just watch la la land .
update, 1: 20 pm pt: alfonso cuaron ’s jury for the 72nd venice film festival spread out its prizes across several well - received titles tonight, but it also shut out some performances and critical favorites which had been among the most discussed. what’s more, it made history by giving the first golden lion ever to a latin american film .
that drama, from afar (desde alla), is also the first feature by helmer lorenzo vigas and the first ever venice entry from venezuela. the plot centers on a wealthy middle - aged man who falls for a street thug, changing both their lives. it’s based on a story by 21 grams writer guillermo arriaga .
coming into the fest, chief alberto barbera had told me that latin america was “ one of the most interesting areas from the point of view of emerging talent. ” it was also well - represented in the awards with argentina’s pablo trapero taking the best director silver bear for el clan. the film, about the murderous, kidnapping puccio family of the 1980s, has been a box office smash at home for fox international productions which also has u. s .
in a post - ceremony news conference tonight, cuaron rejected a suggestion that his mexican heritage may have been an influence on the outcome of the jury’s deliberations. “i have as much sway as the king or queen of sweden. my role is more representative than anything else. even if i had wanted (to support latin america) it would have been a bigger conspiracy and i would have had to share the money, ” he joked .
despite widespread praise throughout the fest, the folks that didn’t get lido callbacks for tonight’s awards ceremony included the danish girl ‘s eddie redmayne and alicia vikander; along with a bigger splash ‘s ralph fiennes. cuaron said of the jury’s choices in general, “this is not a testament of a universal truth. this is just this decision of this group of people. you know if you put the same films with a different group of people, you would have a different result. an award doesn’t prove much. the only thing that proves something is time and history. ”
it might be worth remembering that birdman and michael keaton left the lido empty - handed last year .
among the popular choices that did take a nod was charlie kaufman and duke johnson’s stop - motion brainteaser anomalisa which scooped the grand jury prize. the existential musing is one of the hot acquisition titles in toronto and scored a huge round of applause from the press corps when its name was called here tonight .
also getting his fair share of applause was abraham attah, the beasts of no nation star who won the best new young actor award. in the film, netflix’s first major feature attempt at awards season glory, attah plays the child soldier recruited by idris elba’s warlord. in a press conference last week he was clearly shy in communicating with reporters. tonight on stage, he seemed far more polished, thanking the festival, the jury, the producers, his fellow actors, elba and netflix .
french veteran fabrice luchini was named best actor for l’hermine, which also took best screenplay. italy’s own valeria golino was best actress for giuseppe gaudino’s per amor vostro, a drama about a neopolitan woman struggling to overcome depression .
a standout in the horizons section was brady corbet’s the childhood of a leader. corbet has been a longtime actor and this is his debut feature as helmer. the drama took the best first film prize as well as best director after falling apart several times in production and leading him to near despair, he said. he’d already been back in upstate new york yesterday when he go the call to come back — looks like the trip was worth it .

sometimes it depends on your length of your cruise. with us it usually takes 3 to 5 days to totally forget you aren' t on the ship anymore. have a great next cruise .
* 3rd time is not a charm... 5th time is! *
the effects are different for every person. i get it after every cruise, even with very smooth ocean conditions. i just continue taking dramamine for a week after i return home. it' s your inner ear readjusting to the lack of motion after having adjusted to the motion of the sea. i' m the only one in my family who gets it. while some think it' s not a big deal, it is very bothersome for me, it' s not fun at all .
i think it also has to do with the length of the cruise. my first 2 cruises were very short (first one we missed the boat... caught up to the boat on the last day of a 3 night cruise 2nd cruise was to nowhere. . only 2 nights... . felt fine afterwards... 3rd cruise 4 nights to key west and cozumel... . was holding on to walls for 3 - 4 days. my children (who did not go on the cruise) were getting quite a kick out of me holding on to them for balance. i do agree that when i started planning my next cruise the symptoms seemed to get better
my wife and i have never had this problem, i can never think of a single time whe either of us would stagger on a shore tour, let alone when we get off the ship at the end of a cruise, and, my wife has suffered from' positional vertigo', but it has never been affected by cruising. john

it takes me about 3 - 4 days to feel mostly normal. . but for a day or two after that i do feel the occasional sway. i kind of like it though. . i think of it as souvenir .
i actually would love to feel this effect. i find it amusing reading the posts. lol sorry but i was brought up on the water since i was 11 yrs. old, spend 4 years on the water in the coast guard, ran a charter fishing boat for 2 years. i guess if i had it, it was in my younger years. for the posters that take 1 to 4 days to recover, how do you get through the excurrsions? lol drunk without drinking

... we actually started to notice the phenomenon on our first stop in ketchikan, my wife said she felt a bit dizzy and the other couple we were travelling with both said they felt a bit wobbly, after they started talking about it i also noticed i was feeling slightly unsteady. its not something that incapacitates you, its just a strange sensation that you probably get aclimatized to if you work for a living on a ship. it also affects people who travel by train, a girl i know who worked for amtrak for a few years said she had to get used to how it felt walking on solid ground after a week on board the train... cheers, the imagineers ncl cruise on the wind - aug 27 / 06, it was great, i' ll miss the wind. upcoming oceania cruise on the insignia - apr 28 / 07
after my 2nd cruise, it took me a month to recover from this. since then, i take seasick pills starting the night before cruise (1 / 2 a pill in the morning, 1 / 2 in the evening) and for a couple of days afterwards. since that 2nd cruise, it' s only taken me about 36 hours to get over the feeling .
after our cruise i was so used to adjusting to the motion of the sea that i couldn' t take standing in line at the airport. i was actually hoping for turbulence on the plane so we would have some movement to calm me! i found the bonine helped me not be nervous about the bouncing on the plane. but i still had trouble with the swaying ...

it took me a full 2 weeks to recover from a one week cruise last month. since i had the same experience on my first cruise i wasn' t too freaked out this time. it certainly is disconcerting and people think you' re nuts or a hypochondriac if you tell them! next time i' m going to try what another poster said, continuing with the bonine for a few days after getting home .
it took me a full 2 weeks. i' ve since learned that if you took bonine for motion sickness, you should continue taking it for at least a week after you return .
it' s funny... i rarely feel motion after leaving the ship... that is until i close my eyes to rinse my hair in the shower; then all the motion comes rushing in. i have nearly fallen once or twice .
how long your brain will take to adjust varies considerably, but the good news is that most people will start to feel better within 24 - 72 hours of boarding the boat or ship. some people will need longer for their symptoms to completely disappear, however. and an unlucky few will never fully adjust to the ship' s movements. i' ve read estimates that around 5% of people are prone to severe and chronic sea sickness. nelson and darwin are both thought to have been chronic sufferers (although neither can be said to have allowed sea sickness to have stood in their way !) .
how can you encourage your brain to adjust and develop tolerance? well, unfortunately there isn' t much you can do other than be patient and wait. do keep off alcohol and greasy and fatty foods, and follow the tips on the
pages. you can also experiment with trips on different types of boats and ships to see which you adjust to quickest and most easily. sailing boats, ferries, catamarans, hovercrafts and cruise ships all have different patterns of movement. your brain may well find it easier to adjust to some patterns than others .

stephanie, i feel the same way. i just got home from a cruise. it will be one week on tuesday, please tell me you are fine now. thanks !

“there’s a rich complexity in the nose of this rum: confectioners’ sugar, white pepper, lemon peel, and more. but the hint of lightly smoky pineapple is what makes the aroma so inviting. the palate is no less complex, with more sugar, smoke, and spicy heat. the finish is long with a welcome, balancing heat and an earthy minerality. this is a very fine american light rum that would make an unforgettable daiquiri, but stands on its own neat. ” - reviewed by paul belbusti, urltoken
this rum was made for mixing. we love it in so many ways, year round. try some of our favorites below .
one could say that coquito “cokeeto” is the holiday beverage of choice in puerto rico. it is everywhere and there are many versions with many different ingredients. one thing it always has—silver rum and coconut milk. this is olga’s version of the famous eggnog - like beverage .
put the spices, sugar, and water and boil until reduced to almost half and in a thick syrup. strain the syrup to remove the spices and let cool a little. in a mixer, mix the rest of the ingredients and add rum until you taste a pretty strong drink. (you might have to make this in batches, the mixer is important because you want to get rid of all the congealed coconut oil and mix it with the other ingredients) pour it in flip top bottles and refrigerate. the coquito lasts for a couple of months refrigerated. serve in small glasses with a dusting of cinnamon .
note: you can put nutella in the mix, just omit the syrup. you can also put coffee (one of my favorites) or cocoa powder .
cola de mono is a holiday drink from chile. very easy to make and very tasty. just as with coquito, it can be stored in the fridge for quite a long time .
scald the milk with the sugar and espresso until the sugar is dissolved. let cool. mix with the other ingredients. put in fliptop bottle and refrigerate. serve with a cinnamon stick .
we are rum drinkers but this is a new discovery for us! so much flavor! so good! totally balanced. like the good old classic it is .
mix all ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake vigorously. serve in a martini glass garnished with orange peel .
mix all ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake vigorously. serve in a martini glass .

help! i returned from the wonder cruise on 9 / 18, but i am still feeling the motion! i don' t feel sick or anything. i just feel like i' m still on the ship and feel like i' m spinning sometimes when i' m just sitting. how long will this last? is there anything i can do? i took some dramamine this morning which seemed to help just a little bit. anyone else have this problem? thanks !
i had that problem, but it only lasted one or two days. it was the worst when i was lying down to sleep. it does go away though, so don' t worry about that !
i was on a 7 night cruise and that feeling lasted for several days. unfortunately it sounds like you are at home because i have a
cure
for the motion that you feel in your head. we spent some time at wdw after the cruise and i found that by riding tower of terror that the motion of the ship disappeared for a couple of hours. i should have gotten a doctors note
prescribing
tot so i could have gotten to the front of the line whenever i need another
dose

i had this problem for about 2 - 1 / 2 weeks after we returned from our disney cruise in may 2002. we just sailed on the voyager this past august and never had a problem. hth
and i am also having that problem. that first night was a doozy... . i notice it mostly when i' m standing, casing my mail in the morning, i feel like the whole post office is moving
glad i am not the only one... we just got off the magic... i thought i was coming down with the flu or something .
last year my family headed home by car, after a week cruise. we got to a
rest stop
on i - 10. when hubby and i headed up to the rest rooms we were swaying! lol i thought, i hope a cop doesn' t see us, he' ll think we' re drunk. we were home two days before i felt normal again .
we are also just back from the 9 / 13 magic. i am just starting to feel better today. my husband had to drive me to work since i don' t even think that my reaction time was very good. if i had been pulled over, the cop would have thought that i had 12 - pack before driving! thank goodness it is finally going away. i was begining to wonder !
the ground still
moves
but i don' t feel sick to my stomach. i think the ideal solution though would be to just stay on board... .
i feel woozy after each cruise, too. th elast time i took bonine on the trip and afterward as well and it reduced the level of wooziness to almost nil .
stacey - no, i don' t think it' s a' little souvenir'... .. i love that commercial! especially since i just got engaged on the cruise, i don' t think i' m ready for that just yet! there were a few people (including my fiance' s mom !) who said they wanted me to bring back that' little souvenir' .

is. these inputs are no longer to be trusted in this regard. so your brain decouples these stimuli .
randyonr3 may sometimes be experiencing a mild form of mal de debarquement syndrome (mdds, or disembarkment syndrome), french for
sickness of disembarkation
.
* the symptoms most frequently reported include: a persistent sensation of motion usually described as rocking, swaying, or bobbing; difficulty maintaining balance; extreme fatigue; difficulty concentrating (
brain fog
); dizziness, headaches and / or migraine headaches, confusion, and anxiety. many patients also describe ear symptoms such as hyperacusis, tinnitus ,
fullness
, pain, or even decreased hearing. cognitive impairment (
brain fog
) includes an inability to
words, short term memory loss, and an inability to multi - task .
well that explains it, i am suffering from late onset mdds, must have happened after that first longish trip of a couple of weeks about 20 years back. the symptons are really kicking in lately .
for a few days after returning from a trip of more than a few days .

i get it to... sometimes quite strongly. i have found the best cure is to get straight back on board (in some sunny climb with a gentle breeze blowing and the call of the local birds, whilst a waft of barbeque something sooths my nostrils and... . .
i' ve experienced the same reactions as paul e. i' ll wake up in the middle of the night in my bed at home, thinking i' m still on a mooring or an anchor and jump up to check the lines. after sailing through a 4 day low pressure system, i would wake up in bed, thinking the ceiling was the cabin sole... weird, but i kind of like it... but then, i' m weird... i' ve woken up from a dead sleep, thinking that my neighbors yellow driveway lights were shore lights and i' m still on the boat... ... i never get sick, though... if anything, upon realizing that i' m actually home... i feel disappointed, wishing i were back on the boat! ! ...
trouble sleeping is definitely one of the symptoms. after 2 + years of cruising it took us about a month to get used to a bed that didn' t move plus no creaking, groaning, wind generator noise, wave slaps, etc .
i still think may have had something to do with the computer screens. we were both fine until looking at them .
it was most certainly the computer screen or rather the visual concentration that brought on your symptoms. the eyes compensate for the over or false stimulation of the inner ear and proprioceptive system and as noted above the brain is trying to create order out of the input signals it is receiving. just as a mild imbalance in our eyes adds to the sensory conflict of motion sickness, ocular input is important for the recovery. (patching one eye markedly decreases sea sickness) if you would look up frequently from the screen and stare at the horizon, the effect would be mitigated to a great extent. or if you want to increase the stimulation and motion effect, stare at a rotating drum with stripes on it. (caution, may induce a fish feeding episode .) unfortunate student of sea sickness charlie
i have been getting a version of mds lately. it' s the mal de suds version. same symptoms, room spinning etc. and in severe cases you will end up only
seeing
the ceiling for a brief period before blacking out. usually you' ll wake up hours later with a thick tongue and bad breath .

nice to know i' m not the only one who gets that weird feeling. it usually happens when i' m back at work after being on the boat all weekend and sit down to work at the computer. also i' ve noted it happens when i take a shower. standing under the water, with your eyes closed, and i could swear the whole shower is swaying!
