Some pain is very hard to identify. Many people think they have one thing when it is actually another. Even the doctors are not always 100% sure. Now a days it seems we go though a battery of tests so that they can protect themselves from making a wrong diagnosis, but it does still happen. Take care and try to rest.

The last time I had pneumonia I was admitted to the hospital because that thing that they clamp on your finger to show how much oxygen is getting in your blood (or something like that) was 85% on oxygen. Gary had called the EMS because I could not catch my breath and with each cough it got worse and the pain was intense. I was in the hospital for over a week. I took Avelox once and it gave me horrible palpatations and chest pain. Please I think if you are in doubt and having this much pain and you are not getting better go back to the ER.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779594718572241463.post-59052598808512146102008-02-28T09:03:00.000-05:002008-02-28T09:03:00.000-05:00Oh honey, I hope you feel better sweetie,.
