Wow what a week last week was for me. I ended up in the hospital due to pnemonia. I went into the ER on the 8th because I thought I was just having an asthma attack. Well 9 days later I get to go home. I am pumped up with steroids and antibiotics and am feeling much much better. I missed you guys.

((((Buggie))))) wow I feel for you.... I avoided the hospital stay with my 2 month bout with pneumonia this year.. .only because the hospital failed to send my MD the chest xray report! Not fun. Took me another month to regain strength, if I have yet.

Take it easy. Glad you made it through. I'm back

Thanks you guys for all your warm thoughts. I am doing much better and hope that soon I'll be able to do things without getting so tired. I went and saw my pdoc today and got more meds and had to come home and take a nap. I find that when I get out and do things I have to take a nap because it makes me so tired. I plan on talking with my gp about this on Monday when I see him. I have my follow up with him then. I ended up getting thrush because of the high powered antibiotics but its a minor thing that I have meds for. All l have to say is this had better work because it was very expensive. Thanks to mom and dad for paying for it.

Jbug,

I am so glad you are getting back to living again......pneumonia is a horrible thing.....been there done that too many time in my life.....a few years ago, I had pneumonia 3 times in one year. Not hospitalized for them, but was for an asthma attack about 2 years ago.

It was only supposed to be a 3 day stay because the ER treatment with the albuterol had dropped my potassium to a dangerous low. Went to my new GP & landed in the hospital for 10 days. That was because I had an allergic reaction to one of the meds they tried on my......it caused me to loose my voice completely & my GP wouldn't let me go home worse off than when I came in. I told him by writing, that I thought it was a reaction.....they took me off that med & it still took 3 days for my voice to come back......my allergic reactions take way too long to get over & they thought it might not be that....but my voice came back quickly when the reaction went away.....almost with a snap of my fingers. It is horrible being in a hospital room with the call buttons & not be able to call for help when you have no voice at all.

I know that they have pneumonia shots that are supposed to prevent pneumonia.....don't know how they work & don't want to try either cause I usually have worse reactions to those kind of things than having them prevent anything.

It does take alot out of you when you are that sick....for sure.....just take it easy & let yourself sleep as much as you need.....no need to have a relapse....can be worse than the initial.

Take care,
Debbie
