Started out with a sore throat. Turned into running nose and severe headaches. Turned into severe productive cough (green phelgm), vomiting and now nose is stuffed up. Fever for 5 days so far. Absoultely no appetite or energy. Chest feels like its being crushed. The other night I woke up in the middle of the night and it felt like there was a band of pain around my chest. I called the squad and my blood pressure and pulse were way up. They said I must have been coughing in my sleep. Tylenol brings my fever down some, but not to normal. Went to doc, gave me antibiotics and Sudafed. Any other suggestions?

Sound like you have it covered if it is pnuemonia the Anti-b should cover it if they are the right type and the bug is not a resistant one. be sure to take every one ofhte pills

YES...i had ARDS...acute respiratory distress syndrome...they gave me the z-pac for it and it didnt work....so if you do not get better within a couple of days. try to do a follow up exam with ur doctor. just to see if the meds are working.

I HAD A FRIEND WHO HAD SARS ( SEVERE ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME) I BELIEVE HE TOOK AN ANTI BIOTIC CALLED CIPROFLOXCINA OR FOR SHORT "CIPRO" AND HE GOT WELL QUITE RAPIDLY.
