Virus aboard Cruise Lines
 
Sailed in March aboard Island Princess. Norwalk Virus broke out(or so we heard). Husband has been in ICU with pneumonia and kidney failure for three weeks now and DID get ill on March 16th with bladder infection and general weakness with visit to ships m.d... Any information to us greatly appreciated. M.D.'s stumped as to source

Oh My - so sorry to hear of such an ill DH. Hope he is better, soon.

I would suggest that you go to cruisecritic.com and ask on the Princess board if anyone got sick on that sailing.

Good luck and get well soon, M.A.

That's awful, hope he's better soon.

I would contact the cruiseline & be very direct with them.

Ps, you may want to contact Cruisejunkie through his email as he may have additional info not printed in the report. Good luck and hope your spouse gets better soon.

That virus is pretty common. If your MD is stumped I would get a 2nd opionion. Hope he is better.
