It's not pneumonia...yet?

Today I visited the walk-in clinic for the third time; my ongoing wheezing and shortness of breath evidently caught their attention this time and they sent me in for chest x-rays. They said it doesn't look like pneumonia, but the fact that I'm not getting better is not good, so I have a new fistful of meds and an appointment with a pulmonologist next week. Yay!

But on the good side, with all the time I've had to take off work, I was able to finish and submit both my extra Festivids. I'm breathing easier, at least metaphorically. Sitting around tomorrow and binging on everyone's vids sounds like a perfect way to spend the day.

Yikes! That's a little scary. They said my lungs were mostly clear, and I'm already feeling a lot better with the meds (inhaler, prednisone, antibiotics, plus more OTC stuff). This is my current mantra:

I LOVE PREDNISONE
TAKE ANOTHER PILL FOR THE AIRBOX, BABY!
I LOVE PREDNISONE
SWALLOW IT DOWN AND BREATHE WITH ME!

But thank you for the warning!
