Glasto flu

[Euphoricape]

Feeling proper rough this afternoon, nose and eyes streaming and sneezing fits. Not sure if it's cos I'm run down, because of all the dust in my sinuses or could be covid. Anyone else feeling the same?

I started with it Sunday morning annoyingly. Exactly the same. Starting to ease now, a lot of Peppermint tea is doing the trick. Suspect a dust in the pipes thing.

Definitely get a test. Last year something like half of our group came back with it.

Glad you are feeling better today. Hopefully it is just a dust thing. We were camped at Hitchin Hill and lots of vehicles were using that dusty road so it was just always in the air.

Rumour has it there’s a terrible cold doing the rounds which originated in Columbia. 👀 😂

I was coughing a lot sat and sun, but it's subsided a lot today as I've been away from the dust for a while. Haven't felt remotely ill, actually felt really good, best I've ever felt on sun/mon/tues of Glastonbury!

Just done a test and its covid, very annoying but thanks for flagging, as was under the impression it was just a cold.

I will spare you the details but I have never been this empty.

It's coming out both ends.

Aye, same. I also can't taste anything so I'm assuming it's covid. Could be that all the dust and other stuff just ruined all my senses though.

I think it’s the dust. I was very congested towards the end, coughing/sneezing etc, but it’s subsiding now I’m away from the farm. I’m aching too but that’s to be expected!

[Euphoricape]

Just did a test and it's negative. Must be the dust and generally run down maybe then. 

[Ayrshire Chris]

Dry throat and cough. The dust I reckon.

Maybe you're allergic to the farm 🙂

Thanks very much.

You could tell there had hardly been any rain for weeks. At times you could see it swirling around.

does dust usually give people cold/flu/covid/shits?

If I am it’s not gonna stop me returning! 

My hay fever was an asshole this year, too, it’s usually done by now, but no luck this year!

[alibear]

Sorry to all those suffering with the “emptiness” - noro does have a habit of rearing it’s ugly head on the farm 😞

[Ayrshire Chris]

I was feeling ok until I read this thread. 

[MEGATRONICMEATWAGON]

I do take anti-allergy tablets because I'm allergic to dust and dustmites. Luckily, I was alright this year.

Hope everyone feels better soon!
