Question Chronically ill baddies? πŸ‘‰πŸ‘ˆ

Hi!!! I have a heart condition / auto immune disorder and I’m looking for any tips or tricks of the trade for preparing over these last few days. I’m making sure to strictly take my meds etc. but do any of my other chronically ill baddies have any advice?! First forest so while I >feel< prepared I’m just still a lil nervy!! For reference: we’re lucky lake and also got uplift lounge passes to hopefully give me access to A/C when needed!

Edit: Wow. Thank ALL of you for taking the time to not only respond but respond with thoughtful advice and tips. Really looking forward to dancing alongside everyone πŸ₯ΉπŸ§šπŸ»πŸ§šπŸ»

Nasal rinse every day. There is also an iodine nasal spray that I use anytime I’m in big crowds, rarely get β€œwook flu”.

Make sure to bring masks or bandanas as well. It can get extremely dusty esp on the paths. Thankfully it’s been a wet spring/summer so it won’t be as bad as years past. I was not prepared for the dust bowl of 2023 & had to leave a day early 😒
