Speaking of doctors, I saw mine yesterday after calling Tuesday for an appointment since I'm coughing a ton and coughed up blood.

Doc was very attentive, sent me for a chest x-ray, told me he wanted to figure out whether it was bronchitis or pneumonia because he uses different prescriptions for both. Told me I'd hear from him Friday morning, noon the latest.

Nothing.

Let a message for him a bit after 1pm.

Nothing.

Call and keep calling every 15 minutes. It's Friday, they may close up early. - sycor Oct 25, 13:39
well hey, some good news, it's 'only' bronchitis -- nm - ty97 Oct 25, 13:23 3

- Please be careful. Recklessness can turn bronchitis into bronchial pneumonia. - David Oct 25, 13:28 1
  - Thanks being super careful. Basically been holed up in my apartment all week. Just glad to finally have something to try and kick this. -- nm - ty97 Oct 25, 13:30

I've had pneumonia *several* times. I've never once coughed up blood. Go to a hospital. -- nm - David Oct 25, 13:01 6
- I had it once. Never want to experience that again. -- nm - kilboooooo Oct 25, 13:08 3
  - my last count was 11 times. -- nm - groiny Oct 25, 14:07
  - Same. Worst I ever felt. -- nm - Dark Callisto Oct 25, 13:26 1
    - I've heard the stories from others that have had pneumonia too, I can't even imagine. - ty97 Oct 25, 13:31
- I only coughed up blood once, three days ago, and the x-ray was done at a hospital. - ty97 Oct 25, 13:03 1
  - If you're coughing that much, you should place a pillow on your stomach. Otherwise, you might break a rib. -- nm - David Oct 25, 13:04
dude - kilboooooo Oct 25, 12:58
call again, please. -- nm - Andie Oct 25, 12:56
