It certainly does. Hope you're feeling better soon.

It's important to get professional help at the first sign of any
respiratory distress. I've had two acquaintances who failed to do
that and they are no longer with us - both middle aged folks who were
otherwise in good health.

My wife has been hacking for 2 weeks now. Deep coughing fits that hit every couple minutes. I finally convinced her to call her dr tomorrow. I feel she's got a "walking pneumonia"

gotta do something. This isn't cool.




Good for her to get checked out.

On a scale of 1-10, Tuesday evening and yesterday I was at a "1".
Today I feel a bit better ... maybe a "2". Very weak and achy though.
Drinking as much water as I can. No appetite for food though.
Ironically, I had to cancel a doctor's appointment for today because I
didn't think it would be smart to go out in a blizzard, and spreading my
germs all around the Doc's office.
