Two years ago I got a pneumonia vaccination with a followup booster shot last fall.
Last week after feeling so ill I could hardly get out of bed I went to my doctor and within mins I was diagnosed with pneumonia.
I was given two long shots in my hips, two blood draws were taken from my arms in addition to several prescriptions from my local pharmacy and an hour long albuterol treatment.
My doctor said if my breathing didn't improve within the next 24 to 48 hours she would put me in the hospital.
For the past month or so I had a heavy chest with phlegm and I was tired as well as having a hard time breathing.
I should have gone to the doctor earlier but I kept thinking I could kick this cold or whatever it was on my own.
The older you get the harder these illnesses are to recover from, maybe I have learned my lesson about going to the doctor when I start to feel bad.
If there was one good thing that came from being sick it's the fact that I have lost 11 pounds.
At least now I can trim my toe nails and breath at the same time.
