> > Wildflower wow I am so sorry. I had pneumonia once and knew I felt like I had a cold but didn't know how ill I was.....I hope the doc gave you some antibiotics, told you to drink a lot and maybe sit where you have lots of steam like the bathroom with the shower running and at bed a humidfier to help bring up any phlegm...Let us know,,,,did he do xrays?

> When I was at the office, he gave me a breathing test to find out the capacity of my lungs and then he gave me a breathing treatment - no x-rays. He prescribed a z-pak, inhaler and an expectorant. I'm not coughing at all but my chest really feels like someone is standing on it. I moved a chair from one end of the room to the other last night and I felt like I had just run a marathon. It's a very strange feeling.I'm sorry you're feeling this way. I just want to again state that niacinamide is a really useful treatment for relaxing the airways. You could well be feeling a nutrient stress from your psych meds.
I'm really glad you went to see the doctor. And I truly hope you follow up if you are not feeling well by Monday. Breathing is an under-rated ability.
Take care.
