I think I'm getting pneumonia

Been sick since Friday. Laying down now, my lungs are making a noise exactly like creaking rigging on a sail boat. Or kind of like someone walking on a creaky wood floor.
Time to see the dr.

I think Mucinex is just plain old Guaifenesin but I could be wrong about that. Either way, it helps.

My doctor said the cough has been particularly tenacious and has hung on sometimes for weeks in his patients. Just seems to be the way this year's flu is behaving.

On the plus side he saw fewer then normal numbers of patients go towards pneumonia or bronchitis.

I'm going for a run as soon as I can handle a flight of stairs without being completely out of breath and nearly passing out. It's the better then any drug for clearing out the lungs.

hope you're feeling better, bro.

pneumonia is nothing to mess with ... fever, chills, can't breath ... not good.

i think i had the same thing people are describing ... i coughed so hard and persistently that i ended up breaking a rib or two earlier this winter. it hurt so bad when i coughed the doc had to break out the painkillers.

Just ask Jim Henson.....


Seriously, pnuemonia is nothing to mess around with...

Bronchitis is another possibilty, presents itself alot like pnuemonia
