Could this be phenumonia?

[vikinggal011]

Last Tuesday I began feeling sick with chills, no fever, fatigue, nausea with an appetite, and post nasal drip. Sunday I began having a hard time breathing; like somebody was sitting on my chest. I was wheezing and my parents wouldn't take me to the hospital so I popped some antibiotics from the last time I had an infection and took my inhaler. I'm in college and on their insurance so I don't really have a choice. Now my chest symptoms are coming back again and I feel as if my lungs are filled with mucus and I cannot get it up. The coughing is making me nauseated and I feel like gagging. So I took an antibiotic again and perscribed robutussin with codine and a sudafed. What should I do? Does this sound like phenunomia to you, even a mild form? I feel as if I have it because I've had it before and this is how I felt; dragging myself, tired, and sick. Thanks for your help.

the doctor said that he is sure that my husband has phenumonia, he gave him two shot, antibiotic bactrim and tamiflu?  i thought that tamiflu was only for flu?

even if it isnt pneumoniait is an infection for sure, when you took those anti-biotics(if you only took two) and depending on what kind of anti-biotics they are they probably just made the infection resistant to those...so your gonna have to go to the doctor and make sure your not gonna drown from fluid in your lungs and get some really strong anti-biotics...and make sure you take EVERY SINGLE ANTI-BIOTIC IN THE BOTTLE UNLESS OTHERWISE DIRECTED BY YOUR DOCTOR...good luck and keep me posted
