I had walking pneumonia a little over a year ago. It's more than just a cold that won't go away! I seriously felt like I was going to die. There were nights where I was awake with a high fever and I was coughing uncontrollably and I just prayed that God would take me quickly. That's how bad it is!
I was achey and I was constantly coughing in all kinds of pretty colors. I was congested. High fever. I couldn't eat and lost a lot of weight. My lungs hurt because the pneumonia had caused pleuresy (sp?).
I would never wish this on anyone else. It was miserable. So, my opinion is that if you had walking pneumonia, you would know! I hear the more severe kind of pneumonia is even worse and I know that kind requires a hospital stay.
Anyway, the only antibiotic that worked on me was Tequin. That stuff is my hero. I was feeling better within 2 days of taking it.
