Guest guest Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 I need to pick your collective brains. My non-medical husband has decided that I should get a pneumonia shot this year. Easy for him to say, it's my body that the needle punctures! His reasoning is this: in the last two years, I've gotten severe bronchitis twice. During one episode ended up in the ER with an asthma attack. (IV steroids are amusing!) Also a case of chemical pneumonitis caused by aspirating pool water. (Yes, I am a severe klutz ;-) ). Add to this, I work in a hospital where I get exposed to all kids of exotic bacteria. I don't see my doc 'till the end of this month, and she's hard to get a hold of at times. Have any of you been told to do this? Just wondering. Jenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
