Pneumonia and scared

[Guest guest]

First of all Merry Christmas.. I am writing u guys from my hospital bed with

pneumonia. Been here 12 hours and have sucked in atleast 7 bags of 3 different

antibiotics. Dr just came in and said i am not moving any air in middle bottom

right lung, he says its filled with blood, fluid and phlegm.. He says it COULD

start clearing up on 2 days. My fear is what if it doesnt??? Do they suck it out

with a needle or what??? (just being crazy)...

I am un imuran therapy and he's considering taking me off.

Any suggestions, stories or similarities to my situation?? I am very scared and

ger anxiety when the doctor looks like he diesnt know what to do !!!
