<p>I once got “seasick” standing on a dock, watching the boats bob up and down!</p>
<p>I have been on two cruises and tried a variety of things. The Scopolamine patch worked for a few days, albeit with dry mouth and chemical taste in my mouth, but I had to take it off when my vision got blurry. </p>
<p>Seabands haven’t worked for me at all, however, a Relief Band was fairly effective. It looks like a wristwatch but sends electrical signals that somehow interfere with nerves that cause nausea and motion sickness. You put a gel on the inside of your wrist to help with conductivity and can adjust the strength of the stimulation to 4 or 5 settings. It runs on watch-type batteries than can be replaced. It reminded a little of the TENS unit my physical therapist used for my shoulder pain.</p>
<p>The Relief Band wasn’t a miracle worker. I still felt queasy at times, but it was a lot better for me than anything else I’ve tried. For some reason they discontinued it, but when I did an internet search I came up with a replacement called a Reletex. </p>
<p>You can Google “Relief Band” or maybe check out this link.</p>

<p>I second the recommendation for cruisecriticdotcom. There is a wealth of information on their boards, and it is another site that is quite addictive!</p>
