pneumonia
If you have a virus that resulted in pneumonia, while allopathic medicine has little in the way of anti-virals, there are plants that have anti-viral properties. Olive leaf and elderberry are two examples. Herb Pharm makes a tincture that helps with virus control. That being said, though, and assuming this is viral in nature, once you have pneumonia you have progressed significantly through the viral process already and the more important thing is clearing the lungs.

Husband had headache with 103 fever off and on (mostly on) for more than a week. Finally, on the third time to the ER, they admitted him, diagnosing with pneumonia. He's been at the hospital for a week now, and although fever and headache gone, after CT scan and a couple other procedures, they just told him that his pneumonia hasn't gone away. The doctor said he's going to try different treatment, and tomorrow get a lung biopsy.
thanks for answering my post, i understand what your saying but i just have to wonder if the pneumonia had anything to do with it. and why did 3 different hospitals send him home if he was sick? i guess i've just never gotten over it, he was so young. he did'nt get to walk me or my sister down the isle or know his grandchildren.i take it that you've had heart problems, how are you doing? again, thanks for posting to me.

Hi bibban12,
The thing about pneumonia is it's just a broad term for lung inflammation, and the air sacs filling up with fluid, but it isn't a specific diagnosis of what caused the pneumonia.
m assuming lead to pneumonia, respitory failure, septic shock, and kidney damage. He was hospitalized at the time for a total of 8 days most of which were spent in the ICU. In November, he was again admitted with similar symptoms, which did develop into pneumonia, although this time he was not intubated and his lung continued to function on its own. Less than 2 weeks ago (Feb.
Buddy was diagnosed with pneumonia and has gone through a course of doggy antibiotics and 3 courses of human antibiotics. The right lung is full of fluid. He would get better, then be energetic and get worse. It was suggested that he may not have pneumonia but CHF. Is there anything to do to help him. The vet doesn't seem to have any suggestions. Would a diuretic help? He's starting to not eat now.
His doctor gives him motrin for during work hours and a muscle relaxer for at home but it knocks him out (puts him to sleep) now he is getting depressed due to the severe pain at work and either pain or sleeping at home. I should mention it has almost been 1 year since he was admitted to the hospital originally he is looking for something that will stop or dampen the pain without knocking him out so that he can get back to a somewhat normal life. Any suggestions?

Bacterial or viral lung infection can precipitate asthma with wheezing in a person genetically predisposed to asthma. Treatment of the presumed asthma, aside from treatment of the infectious pneumonia, is appropriate. So, this could be asthma, superimposed on pneumonia.
Your son could have whooping cough, despite immunization against it.
If his fever and sweating with clammy skin has subsided, it is probably a sign that the antibiotic therapy has been effective and the pneumonia is clearing.
s hospital where they treated him for pneumonia for 2 days then sent home to take Cefdinir for 12 days. Once the 12 days were over he once again started with the high fever and his cough never left. His doctor did x-rays once again and put him back on Cefdinir for 10 days. He ended up going back to Children's E.R. where they said he had decreased air movement in his lower left lobe and put him on Amox-Clav ES for 14 days. He is still running fever with a wet cough.
He too has been without insurance at times and has had to find alternative treatment. I am providing the link but I will also suggest that your post be moved to that forum.

I might suggest that you check with your state to see if what programs or benefits are available to you. In our state (WI) there is now some state insurance available to those that qualify and other benefits.
All the joints and every thing hooked to them was hurting, I had to go get something for it at the nearest hospital. It did help with the pain but two hours later I got this heavy and wizzie thing in my chest, It just kept getting worse with-in aweek I felt bad and went back to the hospital with a cough and couldnt breath good. At the hospital they took a flu test and said they did not know why It was going on !
I went for my follow up CT scan for a small node on my lung. I haven't felt well for a few years nothing major just bone aches chronic cough night sweats, ect. Anyway I ask the technician if it'll tell if I have pneumonia as I've been sicker then normal for a month. So I get home there's a message my doctor wants to see me that day.
