Glad you're back. How in the world did you catch pneumonia? Get you plenty of rest. I know your lungs are real tender, I've had pneumonia before, not fun at all. Especially when you are allergic to Sulfa drugs... Hugs, Terre

terre the doctor said i was in just the right place to pick up the germ don't know when that was as I spend most of my time at home .about the only place I go is the arobics class 3 times a week. could have picked it up there.I don't know I have had it once before but it was not like this I was just coughing then.

I see that the Lord arranged for both you and your machine to get some rest - so do what the doctor's say and rest and get better. So glad that you are home and in recovery.

Oh Dear Lena Mae please make sure you do as the doctor tells you or you will suffer terribly later.

I hope it was not the kind that affects your heart muscle. You will know if it was as it will manifest itself in rapid or erratic heartbeat, so please don't panic if that happens, just get yourself back to your doctor or hospital as calmly as possible, it's usually not serious but may need medication for a few months until it settles down.

In Australia we can get vaccinated against further bouts of pneumonia and it is well worth it to know you are protected.

Please take care and don't exert yourself until you are 100% over it or it will come back to bite you.
Hugs n love, Meganne

The doctoe was up set because I had not come in earlier than i did.but meganne I picked up some thing and I thought I had pulled a mussle it started hurting in my arm and shoulder that night every time I breathed it hurt I thought on no I have broken that rib again so I went in to see if that is what I had done. I was not coughing or any thing pneumonia was the last thing on my mind.

Plenty of rest! Your lungs are very important. I have had asthma, bronchitis, collapsed lung, lung cancer and surgery to remove part of one and then chemo. You must be careful not to over do. REST!

I forgot to add in there that I have had pneumonia several times too. If they sent you home with inhalers to use, please use them as directed for as long as the doc says to!
by lenamae 14 Sep 2010
thanks Lee OH my goodness I am so sorry you have all that .he said I had copd. I do have 2 inhalers to use and he told me it was important .that I do.

COPD is life long so now you have to be especially careful. If you smoke, quit! I quit 16 years ago and if I can do it anyone can. Don't be around people who do smoke. Cover your nose and mouth in very cold weather, the cold air will cause more coughing. For you, a regular chest cold will be harder to deal with so take good care of yourself! Do as I say, not as I do, lol. I am a bad patient!
by lenamae 14 Sep 2010
I do not smoke I did but quit qbout 21 years ago .
but I did not smoke that much when I did smoke .
