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