Pneumonia not getting any better?!
Question: Pneumonia not getting any better?
Answers:
You could check with your doctor. But it took me a month to get over pneumonia. The cough goes on forever and your stomach might be messed up from taking all the antibiotics. Always take probiotics or some Yogurt after you finish with a round of antibiotics. Take them for 2 weeks at least. Taking the probiotic pills is easier if you don't like yogurt.
I wouldn't worry unless you're fever over 101.00. But still, call the doctor to double check. Also, you might need an albuterol inhaler to open you lungs open so you can cough up the mucus without so much coughing.
The doctor shouldn't mind answering some of your questions, you've been through a lot.
This is not a substitute for a doctors office. So you better go back and talk to the Doc. but let me tell you I had this once before and I was coughing for six month's.
I coughed so hard I passed out on the floor a few times. You have to give it time .
