Stafford, Cernan, and Young were the first Apollo astronauts to be free from illness during the mission, although Cernan experienced a slight vestibular disturbance.

This lasted for 8 to 10 hours for Stafford and Young; Cernan gradually lost the sensation over the next two days.   Episode 193 on SRH
