    Jack, I hope you get to feeling better soon. How many antibiotics have you tried? Do the doctors try different ones to see what works best for you? What symptoms do you have that you know you have a lung infection?

    Jack, sorry to hear you're sick again. Do you think you got over the last infection or was it still lingering? Either way, I think it's important to get a sputum culture. It could be something else or another antibiotic might be better for it.

    Mostly, I hope you feel better soon.

    Thanks for all the good wishes.

    I now have some more Amoxicillin which seems to work very well. My cough is currently very loose and the sputum has a distinctly greenish colour, but if it is like the other times, I'll soon see a marked reduction in both the coughing and the quantity of sputum and the colour will return to clear/white.

    I hear what you are saying Sangye. I agree that if it continues to be a problem I should do something a bit more specific and get a culture tested. I can't be bothered at the moment! (nag, nag, nag )

    Jack take care of yourself. Keep yourself out of denial, don't want to end up in intensive care like my mother in law. She is a RN and very good at being in DENIAL. Her lungs were getting worse and she was having more pain and she kept telling us she was getting better!!! What???? That lead to the 911 call 6 days ago. The pneumonia was so bad that she went into AFIB and is on heart medicine. AFIb means that the heart becomes irregular and it beat very fast and is not normal.
    She is home now and is very weak. I mean she is at our house.

    Not many hypochondriacs on here are there? Everyone is too busy denying that anything is wrong!

    Glad to hear you are better Jack. I blame everything on Wegener's, even a hangnail.
