Pleurisy, Bronchitis, Walking Pneumonia, Flu

edited February 2013 in General Discussion
So my pleurisy has developed into bronchitis, and walking pneumonia. There's also something my chiropractor said I have but I forget the name. Basically inbetween my ribs there is swelling and that's why no one can touch me right now. Thanks to er doctor who didn't give me any antibiotics. I now have an inhaler for breathing treatments due to low oxygen levels. My left lung isn't working correctly. The hubby says I sound like a walker from the walking dead when I try to breathe deeply or talk a lot. Then I'm on a steroid and antibiotic. Prednisone and Zpak then whatever's in the inhaler. If its not better by Friday I have to go get a chest X-ray done and may possibly be up in the hospital. I'm hoping that doesn't happen. <br><br>Anyone else had either bronchitis or walking pneumonia before? <br><br>Sorry for not being on the past few days. I wasn't moving from bed and it hurt to look at a computer screen. That at least seems to have cleared up. I think it was the head cold I had that was causing that.

    Ouch. :(<br><br>I had bronchitis when I was younger. I don't remember much other than them telling me to get a lot of rest, really. I think I got over it fairly quickly though.

    I'm hoping I get over it quickly. It's already been over 2 weeks since this started. Any activity makes it really bad so I'm just staying on the couch and not moving as much as possible.

    :( I hope you feel better soon, Triss! <br><br>I had bronchitis when I was younger and I've had breathing issues since I was an infant due to a lung infection when I was a few months old. It's pretty much categorized as asthma which is mostly a nuisance to me. <br>Hope you're not in pain! Must really suck >.<

    Thanks guys. I'm still in a lot of pain unfortunately. I go in on Monday for another chest x-ray to see what all is going on. Hopefully they figure it out and I'll be up and moving soon.
