Do I have Pneumonia or just a bad cold?!
Question: Do I have Pneumonia or just a bad cold?
Okai so I have been sick for 4 days so far (started on Wednesday) and I have been getting a little better (my fever broke) but my doctor has yet to find out what I have, so she just prescribed me Antibiotics (amoxicillan) at first I thought it was a very bad cold because I was extremely tired, had constant headaches, and had a constant fluctuating fever. However 2 days ago I developed a bad sore throat and a really painful wet cough. Unfortunately I can't cough up any mucus because it won't come up that far, and I got nauseous yesterday (from the drainage into my stomach) and spit up a bit. The spit had traces of blood it it :O (I did not have anything red to eat) Also my voice had been very weak and I can hardly speak.
if you have any suggestions for treatments, I would be very grateful :) thankyou
btw I am currenly taking:
Ibuprofen, cough suppressant, decongestant (only once), and something else for my cough.

Answers:
taking two cough medicines at the same time is not a good idea
with pneumonia you will keep a high temp., especially going up at night
