Pneumonia

On Thursday, I went to the doctor and saw a doctor associated with my primary. I should have waited a day and seen my doctor. She might have ordered the x-ray that would have showed the pneumonia earlier and saved me days worth of high fever and ick. I told the new lady that my history was complicated but she just took a short listen to my lungs and said Upper Respiratory Infection. Just get lots of rest and fluids. I might have pushed for more if I had felt on Thursday how I felt on Friday. Instead, I had a fever of 102 +, for 3 days before I gave in and went to the ER. Turns out that I have Pneumonia not a URI. Now I go to my doctor on wednesday for a double check but so far I feel I'm getting better.
