Just Rest, Right
From February 2013: Since I'm suppose to rest, guess it's time to catch up on our family blog. Currently I'm recovering from pneumonia. First time I've ever had this. I have had bronchitis once. It took some convincing my doctor it was more than just a bad cold. I mean I waited until day 4 of my sickness with a fever up to 102 before I went to the doctor the first time. I was given some allergy medicine and was told I didn't have the flu but a virus. After a few more days of fevers, cough, and now a rattle at my second visit the Physician's Assistant decided I needed some antibiotics and not just the allergy medicine the doc had prescribed before. Somehow I didn't figure the sound of pop rocks coming from my throat was a good sign, so that's what prompted my second visit. My husband was convinced I should be wheezing if I was really sick like he's been in the past. A few more days later and I received the results of my chest x-ray. I had the x-ray on a Saturday so no quick results were given to me, my doc's office is very slow. I found out Tuesday it was not bronchitis but pneumonia. Guess I was sick after all.
