Left Lower Lobe infiltrate

by lukothomo, Jul 23, 2008 04:06PM
Hello:

I have been having pains when I deep breathe in. It happened first on March 31st, when I was sleeping on couch with my left chest rested on a big wooden hand-rest. After I woke - I was not able to breathe and it took more than an hour for me to breathe normally. But the pain was there. The pain happened again after 1 week and last 2-3 weeks (I think after I played soccer). It happened again after last week soccer game.

Anyway, I got my chest x-rayed. And the doctor said, it is "Left Lower Lobe infiltrate" - He was going to diagnose me with Pneumonia but he didn't find any other symptoms in me. Besides the deep breathing pain - I don't have any other symtoms. One day last week I had a temperature of 99.7 but after that it has been normal. I did feel little weakness for few days but that is also gone. The pain has gone down a little bit...but mind is clouded with thoughts.

Can someone help me to understand this? What is it? I am
