Guest guest Posted April 8, 2001 Report Share Posted April 8, 2001 Do any of you know about this condition? If so can you explaine it to me some more? Kp Bobby has not been as well-came down with a condition called Pluredimia (not sure if I spelled it right). Don't remember if I told you about it. He is lacking fluid around his lungs-just the opposite of Pluresy. Then came down with phnumonia (Again-sorry about spelling). Anyhow, he was off work for quite some time-went back for another chest x-ray. Called the doctor the other day-still has fluid in his lungs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 8, 2001 Report Share Posted April 8, 2001 , think the spelling is pleurademia or pleruodemia. Not quite sure. Still checking in some of my books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2001 Report Share Posted April 8, 2001 , I am very thankful if you can! A very close friend of mine back in Chicago has it and it is VERY painful and he has been out of work with this condition for some time and I just found out today and I am scared. kp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2001 Report Share Posted April 8, 2001 , the closest I've come so far with what references I have at home is Pleurodynia. Could that be it. It says it is acute inflammation of the intercostal muscles and the muscular attachment of the diaphragm to the chest wall. Sudden severe pain and tenderness, fever, headache, and anorexia. Aggravated by movement and breathing. No cough or pleural effusion. Doesn't sound like the opposite of pleurisy does it. I'll keep checking. When I lost all of my " favorites " I lost all my medical sites. Still trying to get them back. Sorry I wasn't of more help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2001 Report Share Posted April 8, 2001 , just re read your post and didn't catch that he had pneumonia last time. DUH!! I just read that there is a pneumonia called pleuropneumonia that is caused by a mycoplasma bacteria. I know when my youngest daughter had pneumonia, it wouldn't clear up at all. kept giving her all sorts of antibiotics. When they finally did a blood test they found she had mycoplasma pneumonia and that erythromiacin was the one and only drug that would cure it. I'm sure there are more drugs out there for it now, but just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
