just got back from the clinic associated with the hospital here....

i thought i had the flu or something....kept putting off going to the doc, even though my temp was running 102.2 as my high, it went down with motrin....i kept thinking i was going to get better....at the doc's office this late afternoon... it was 102.9!!!

it was a little strange cuz i did not have any head cold/flu like symptoms, other than a chest cold, but i still thought it was the flu.... but NOPE, it's Pneumonia!!! :eek:

it could take 2 weeks or longer to get rid of it.... :(

So sorry. Pneumonia sucks.

That's why I get the vaccine.

No biggie, 10 days of antibiotics and you'll be fine. I’ve had it twice, once when was a kid and again in my late 20s had to spend 3 days in the hospital the second time, once you get it, it’s easier to get it again. If as you are in good health, no problem.

This Doc wishes you a speedy recovery...!!!
 
That's a bummer, I hope you feel better very very soon.

There is this stuff called Airborne that when I start to get to feeling sick I take. Can get it at most pharmacies. You drop it in some water and drink it.

It's about 7 bucks and the Lemon Lime one tastes pretty good actually. Just suggesting it (if you want) as it has a bunch of good stuff in it to try to help your weakened immune system.
