pneumonia

by kj1, Nov 23, 2007 02:45AM
   I'm a 44 year old healthy male.  I've been sick for 7 weeks it started as a sore throat and runny nose.  Then when I was in Arizona I started the following symptoms. I've been to the ER twice with no results other than my heart has pvc's and slight anemia  I've been to the pulmenologist 4 times.  I've had numerous tests, blood,ekg,ecg, prostate,  and a cat scan.
I have short breath, chest and throat pain (not when swallowing) dizzy and light headed.
My blood test says pneumonia and the doc says chlamydian pneumonic.  I've taken 2 z packs and doxycycline for 2 weeks.  I've gotten a little better, but it still persists.  One day I felt all better for 16 hours then it started all over.  However, the symptoms are not as bad as the beginning, but it's keeping me from work.
I've had no phelgm just a dry cough raspy throat, and stuffy nose.
Any suggestions...
