Hi Jenny,

I didn't realize you were the one with those kids. I did respond to another post of yours about how emotions can cause inflammation to go up, asthma worsening, trapping bacteria, that can end in pneumonia. Maybe that is what happened to you. It certainly sounds like the aggravation set up a favorable environment for pneumonia settling in.

It's great that your doctor thinks you won't have any lasting damage. The fact that you are feeling better plus that you were stable prior to this should lead you to a nice recovery.

Because lung tissue does not regenerate -- it is super important to keep your airways open (working on any asthma component)so that once you are better you stay better. The less infections, the less damage. You have every reason to believe you can get back to your baseline.

The antibiotics are taking care of the bacteria. But what about inflammation? When inflammation is high, my doctor always says you have to cool the body down. For me it is following an anti-inflammatory routine even more closely. I'd stay out cold air, make sure not to use chemicals, fragrances, buy an air filter if you don't own one, stay away from places that are irritating like certain stores --things like that. I don't know what your usual drug routine is -- so I can't really respond to that.

Are you coughing? Do you have a post-nasal drip? Can you be more specific about how you would like to change up things?
