Breathing was compromised. Not to the point of distress, but... it was noticable.

I am not indestructible.

I am RUSSIAN and ITALIAN.

Welcome to the club.

Not quite that mouthful, I had bacterial pneumonia once. I went from cheerful and healthy to very nearly dead in a few hours one afternoon, it was that sudden.

Antibiotics saved my life; be sure you don’t end your regimen too soon, though - my understanding is you have to continue the antibiotics for a while even after you feel okay or those last little bacteria can grow back with a bang.

Glad you’re still with us.

Death is an option for me.

If that is true Laz, then what the hell are you doing self prescribing medication and self diagnosing when you feel at deaths door?

Really. This is scary. It could have turned out quite differently. I won't get into specifics, but as someone who believes in holistic medicine as self care over a doctor most times, I am horrified at your story. Especially having recently been very sick myself for a month. Let's just pray that it work for you this time and there is no rebound or underlying infection growing inside.

"...valvular revolvular..."

Hahahahahaha....all I could see when I read that was "vulvavulvavulvavulva"...too many "V", "U", "A" and "L"s in one short segment!

In any case, take care of yourself...hope you are feeling better.

Glad you pulled through. Pneumonia is nothing to fool with, which is why I went kayaking in the everglades the first time I had it.

Mine was somewhat more gradual and not quite as fatal feeling. It was a milder case, but a case it surely was.

You get to send me a Lamborghini that my corpse will be buried with.

You gotta do it, too, IT'S IN MY WILL!

I caught a bout of pneumonia last year, and it was not fun, but I got through it without prescription meds. Probably stupid of me, but I’m young and pretty hearty. Coughed up a few buckets of phleghm getting through it, but it wasn’t so severe I felt in any real danger.

exactly! great points. who knows how much and how long and what kind he really needed to truly end such an serious attack of his body. Let’s hope he got it the first time and that it doesn’t spring back worse and leave him antibiotic resistant. Hopefully no pride before the fall. I’ve also had pneumonia twice in my life and it is scary, serious stuff even for us healthy middle agers or young ones full of health, piss, and vinegar :).

Nope, I disown and un-friend you!

Seriously, glad you're on the mend. I was seriously worried about you the other day.

Save a little every time you get a prescription legitimately? Order some veterinary antibiotics that are identical to the human ones? Go to an online pharmacy?

I found that screaming and passing out on the floor will also get you admitted fairly quickly.

They had my name misspelled and SSN wrong. I debated whether to correct them since I clearly remembered giving them the right info after I passed out.
