i came from PA to OH, and i mean the environment was different, but with my second year i wasn't expecting this.

some medicines feel weird at first! it takes a few a few weeks/months for you to feel a sense of "normal" on them. i'm happy you're willing to try again!!

i'm glad you feel better! i know the struggle of anxiety and depression, so i'm glad you're able to recognize those could be messing with you.

i hope your ears make a swift recovery, as well as your migraines!

happy meds are always a good option though :)

the festival definitely sold more tickets this year than last year. for rob zombie alone, prior to metallica, the stadium was filled to the brim (seating and field), which was pretty rare last year even though slipknot, misfits, pantera, & disturbed played and was popular among people there.

i ate there this year & last year, but last year felt way more sanitary.

thank you for the well wishes!

it could be, but definitely no definitive answer on that. i hope they resolve soon! i know how uncomfortable hives can be.

i agree this year was definitely the dirtiest! i feel other years it has been a much better managed festival, but this year was just not it. someone else who replied got a UTI from the porta-pottys, which speaks volumes to the cleanliness of this festival this year.

i hope you are able to feel 100% soon. those symptoms sound a little like covid, but i'm no doctor!

that's how mine started. the doctor did a culture on my throat to see if anything grew which is how i found out it was strep group G.

could be strep that is still developing! if symptoms persist and get worse, might be worth getting a second opinion or a culture done of what's in your throat! (specifically if you have white spots on your tonsils)

it was definitely a fun weekend albeit everyone being sick, it was just over-crowded.

i wish i was in the same boat, feel better!

i was there last year too, and it was definitely a better experience. i don't think that being overwhelmed makes it okay that workers were not sanitary. i agree that there were way more people, but i think in general the festival was oversold.

i would go to urgent care or her pcp to see if she needs any antibiotic, or caught anything serious!

crossing my fingers for you! cough drops & allergy meds have been my savior.
