Guest guest Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Hi all, First off, I haven't read any posts since last night, but was wondering has anyone heard from Joyce or Irene yet? I hope they are both doing well today. I went this morning and had my chest x-ray. No pleurisy as they thought, just pneumonia in both lungs, worse on the right. He said I was barely pulling any air through. ER doc said it was so bad he could have diagnosed it without a chest x-ray! Sent home on prednisone and Levaquin, followup with pulmo next week. The thing that got me was they hand me this sheet of paper with my orders on it and under Clinical Indication for chest x-ray it says " SOB on inspiration, 11 days status post right lung biopsy, END STAGE LUNG DISEASE. " Nobody told ME it was end stage!! How come I didn't know it had gotten that bad? I was thinking I was doing fairly well, as I have not even been placed on home O2 yet!! I was thinking I had a little time left, now I don't know. And the darndest thing of all is that I STILL have not seen MICKEY MOUSE in person yet!!!
