Is your bacteria in your body. You don't have those type of bacteria to fight it off. Every time you go vacation you need some type of shots from the doctor. Just like your fish tank.

So why am i done? Every freaken time I get back into Canada its seems that my body goes trough some sort of detox and shuts the heck down. We got back on Monday and I'm finally staring to feel better. I've had 4 days of fever, sinus congestion and the worst morning sickness ever (no I'm not expecting lol). I had 2 bowls of soup in 4 days! Today was the first day that I was able to keep some solids down.

This has happen 3 out of the 5 times I've been there. This is the LAST time!

Next year.. ITALY!

It's probably the crowded airplane that got you sick. People go there with and party their rears off and then for the trip home are so run down they can't fight off the virus and then lucky you get to breath the same air as them for six hours...

Petty crime is really bad in Italy, my buddy that went over there three years ago was mugged twice!

Take probiotics during and after travel it builds up your body's resistance

Seriously? Where a-bouts?

I'm Italian and when I head home I don't visit the polluted, overpopulated and overpriced cities (well except Rome! Most beautiful architecture on Earth!). The small towns are truly what Italy us all about.

I'll also go with airplane bugs
Last time we came back from Cancun, I ate finger food and my wife had nothing
I was sick for over a week with the same issues you've had
Running to the can every 2 hours on the button too, asleep or not

I will never again touch my face etc on a plane without first using some hand sani
And none of their food either

I just got back from a week in Vancouver last week and have been fighting the worst flu/sinus/bronchitis situation ever! 2nd day back, came home for lunch and felt too weak to go back to work. Missed a week of work and counting! Booooo!!

After Cuba 2 yrs ago (loved it!!) but ended up on an IV after the sand flea bites became worse 2 days after my return home. No wonder people have "staycations", but I wouldn't have missed the snorkeling for anything
