Went and got the Chest X-ray my doctor ordered before Thanksgiving. Put it off, but decided today to getter done.

Just got an email that my test results were back. Took a look..says I have pneumonia in my left lung. Wow...knew I was coughing more, but never dreamed it was pneumonia. Gonna try and keep my distance from Tom so he doesn't get sick again. Will call the doctor tomorrow. No temp..still have energy. Guess that is what you call Walking Pneumonia. We are having BLTs tonight. What are YOU having?

Do you feel bad, have a fever or anything? I remember having pleurisy once. It was like getting stabbed with a knife..everytime I took a breath.

No Fever, no runny nose, just a raspy cough and sometimes spit up stuff...I know TMI..

Yuck If I hadn't read the report, I would have thought maybe my COPD had gotten worse. Weird.

I hope they give you something for your pneumonia. We've both been innoculated against it now.

Sounds like that's what you have. Apparently Tom is home, good.

I had chicken pot pie soup with rice, as well as apples and a fiber bar and some of that delicious tea I got delivered today. I sure pray you get better from the pneumonia!!
