I got home today to find myself with a fever and a pretty bad sore throat. I blame this on not drinking enough vodka for all the weed that i smoked. Did anyone else get sick?

I got the Coachella Bug last year. This year I came prepared and took lots of allergy meds and I'm doing fine (:

I feel like canned ass but I'm putting that down to little sleep, a 3hr drive on Monday topped off by a 10hr flight and a 8hr time change.

sinus infection. Off to the emergency room in search of antibiotics prescrip. Adds another $200 to the cost of attending. But what can ya do? Miss portishead and prince?

After catching that Coachella plague last year, I readied myself by taking vitamins and zicam prior to Coachella and allergy pills each day of the festival. A few sniffles and cough to get the dirt out of my lungs, but I'm fine.

However, I must have walked extra hard this year as my legs and feet are swollen today and practically worthless.

I took a Claritin every morning when I woke up and I am fine, which is a far cry from how I felt last year. Next year, I suggest you all take my lead.

I took claritin every morning and benadryl at night. Only had one beer and one margarita all weekend. And shrooms that weren't magical. And 2 puffs of weed. And at least a dozen good beverages a day: water, sambazon, Gatorade, Brazilian fruit punch.

So at the hospital they insisted on xrays, blood work, and hooking me up to an iv for saline.

I fought off the cold two weeks ago from my family, the flu from a friend, and bronchitis from a classmate.

.. and I still have a quasi-runny nose.

if you got burned, you could experience flu like symptoms. cold/hot flashes, aches, pains, lack of energy/appitite. you're probably not actually sick though...happened to me last year. not this year though. had pleny of sunscreen.

The doctor at the free clinic recommends a double dose of penisillin.

Actually, this is the fourth time going and the first time I got sick. I think the culprit was a combination of using those horrible, dirty portopotties and screaming and dancing like crazy during Prince. It's just a little cold. Congestion and a sore throat. I'm sure it will be gone before The Police and Elvis Costello.

I was so miserable last year after Coachella! I am a sick right now but I blame it on being sick before Coachella (very bad allergies). I pumped my body with medicine every day and tried to keep the dust from entering my body especially since I chose to do things like...drink, smoke a lot of herb, and fry my head off on shrooms Sunday night during waters/smd/chromeo/justice. I just feel extremely congested right now but no sore throat/fever/pounding head/aching body like last year. Still haven't made it into work... want to sleep... forever... damn the real world.

My girlfriend has a cold/sinus issues, but this year I was fine. I think I built up stronger immunity after last year's dust fest.

Between my allergies, the dust, and the second-hand pot smoke (and God knows what else I inadvertently inhaled), my throat and lungs were in rare form.

I am still sick as can be. Started feeling ill Monday evening. At least the flu came after my favorite holiday and not during the event.

I got it last year, but oddly enough the only thing I left with this year was the lack of a voice. My voice was completely gone on Monday. And right now, it's only marginally better

I'm still sick today, Friday. I got a sore throat, coughing like crazy, running nose, stuffing head. I went to work yesterday but couldn't stop coughing. So I'm doing a sick day today. My boss said I looked and sounded horrible! I think I caught something on the last day of Coach. Ugh!

I've got something as well...it caused me to wake up, shower, and decide that 2 hours of sleep > biology. I'm actually able to sleep in tomorrow, and i'm up later than i have been since I left the campgrounds
