Unhappy Try to stay healthy this time of year, please.

Okay I've gone and done it. It started as a scratchy sore throat that wouldn't go away along with what seemed like a slight head cold. A week later, and I'm physically freezing cold and sweating at the same time. After a week of this plus the fatigue, I checked myself into the school clinic last Thursday. Well I have been diagnosed with pneumonia, and now on Biaxin along with my other medication. The PD has been playing up more too because of this. My left shoulder and arm are killing me, and I've fallen a couple of times already.

So please, try to stay healthy by eating right and getting plenty of rest. This time of year is worse because of holidays and close proximity to people.

John

Hi John,
Sounds like you got of those generic viruses that hurtle around schools and colleges, and create the right environment for chest infections. Please look after yourself well and get better soon. Plenty of rest is good advice, so please follow it yourself!

Best Wishes
Lindy

The Biaxin is doing wonders and I feel better, but the PD symptoms are worse now. My left bicep muscles, neck and shoulder are so sore, and now my gait and balance are off. I'm not sure if it's the stress from the bug, or the Biaxin.

John
