Don't worry I'm already on antibiotics. I freaked out on Wednesday that I couldn't hear out of my left ear and I have a vacation that requires said left ear.

Oxygen? Fuck that. Make sure you're inhaling all the water you can--not only to pre-hydrate for Roo, but doing so also helps the antibiotics do their thing.

So. Over the past 3 weeks I have had 3 weddings in 3 different states (in two different time zones). So I'm tired and a bit hungover cumulatively. Then, on Sunday, I got rear-ended at a dead stop by a teenager doing about 40mph. Now I've got a head cold with the sore throat and congestion, on top of the soreness from the accident. This is definitely going to be my roughest of my Roo's.
Man, I have the Bonnafloo.. I wish I had heard of it before the festival so I could've prepared (emergen-c, sudafed, etc). If anyone has stopped up ears they need to pop, this article has a few tricks that kinda work. Good luck to all other sick Bonnaroovians!
I had Bonnaflu the last 2 years, but this year just got a minor sore throat and a tiny bit of congestion...a mini-Bonnaflu? Hope everyone who has it feels better soon!
Yeah, I actually started to feel it coming on during superjam and it hit me like a brick wall on monday morning as we were packing. I got a cough, congestion, and a bit of a fever.

Okay I got the weirdest rash looking thing on my legs, but it didn't happen until like last night. Did anyone else get a rash? Sorta freaking me out haha.

I had that happen once from chiggers, got really itchy and dry and stayed there for months. Was it really itchy beforehand? You didn't go off in the woods/weeds and get into poison oak or ivy? Could be allergies.
Didn't go this year but I actually have a rash too at the moment right in the center of my chest: dry, itchy, and red. Talked to a pharmacist and was told it could be from the heat and sweating too much. Said it could cause a sort of "yeast infection" on the skin. That was a new one to me.
Whatever the case, hope everyone recovers soon. Time to break out the Alka-Seltzer and Nyquil.

I have sensitive skin and allergies, so always get rashes under the wristband and on my ankles where the grass touches. They get really bad if I mindlessly scratch them, so I try very hard not to do that. Hopefully they will go away soon.
Managed to escape the past few years unscathed. this year it caught up to me. Monday and Tuesday were just awful. Feeling on the upswing today still struggling though

After some googling I actually think I might have a heat rash. Hopefully it goes away because everything else that came up on google was pretty scary looking.
The wife and I thought maybe it was just all the dust this year, but now she is starting to lose her voice and we both have sore throats. Maybe all the partying and dehydration weaken everyone's immune system. Gonna def wear the bandanas more next time!
Same here. I didn't notice anything until Tuesday but it came on strong Wednesday night and I feel like crap today. Stuffy nose, a little cough, and a very sore throat. If this is what happens at Bonnaroo, I'm never going back.
I didn't get sick this year, and I am so happy. I credit the nasal spray I used twice a day to clear out my sinuses. However, I was fighting off a chronic headache for a couple days, which was really annoying, but was manageable and didn't ruin my time at Roo.
Coughed up blood for the first time last night. That was fun.
The weirdest thing is still catching whiffs of Bonnafunk from time to time. That Tennessee dust is all up in my sinuses.
I was about to express great concern and alarm about this until I realized that Monday morning during 'The Great Epistaxis of 2015' I also coughed up a giant blood clot. Mine was no doubt connected to my nose bleed though, it was quite the epic nasal hemorrhage. Possibly made worse by the amount of stress I was feeling from my car not starting...
Coughing up blood isn't good, have you been getting nose bleeds or was this out of nowhere?
Oh, and my sinus illness that started last Friday is finally going away. I can blow my nose without it bleeding. I can talk in a really low, sexy, raspy, kinda creepy man voice, and I'm coughing much less.

It was just the one time, and it was just a little bit. I was alarmed until (for once) an internet diagnosis quelled my fears. If it happened again or in any large amount I'd be more concerned. It was probably just irritation in my sinuses that I ended up spitting out.
Sinuses are still all effed up. I was taking antibiotics going into Roo, so I really don't want to go on another round, but damn...I'd like to breathe normally now.

About three days after returning to MO, I got a serious sore throat and head congestion. Two weeks later and it's still going strong... Bonnaflu is no joke.
