Hang in there. Hope the pneumonia clears soon and the COPD doesn’t progress any further.
It just surprised me how upset the doctors were that I was COVID negative they made me take the test 3 times. I had been short of breathe for months but the swore I had COVID
Doctors are focused on Covid as if nothing else exist seems like. I had a recent illness and it was immediate they tested for Covid, reasonable..but didn't even try to help me figure out what was causing my symptoms! ( After negative Covid test)
I hope you continue to improve Sir.

Diet helps a lot. Try to eat foods that boost your immune system. I'm assuming they at least prescribed antibiotics. ?
It may feel contraindicated, but drinking a lot of water helps with pneumonia.
Hopefully the potential COPD is just a false alarm and when the pneumonia clears you will be back to normal.

Don't trust doctors. They are usually the last people you see before kicking it.
I'm glad you have a diagnosis, now treatment can start making a difference in the quality of your life! Best wishes for quick recovery!
Good luck my friend. I'm glad you made it out of there.
Because the hospital gets thousands of dollars of Federal M-O-N-E-Y for each and every CV19 case they can report and "treat". With no such diagnosis documented, they have failed to make the cash register ring - THIS is why you sensed them being 'upset' at your being negative; while insisting you were a CV19 Ca$e.
It's not a very nice feeling to come to realization that "your health" is nothing more than a financial football to these white-coated charlatans to try to $core with. - Sherm Natman
Don't even get me started sir... I don't wanna go down that rabbit hole on this forum (risk of getting political, lol) but I know quite a few people in healthcare and one in law enforcement working with healthcare and they all say the same things. Whenever you financially incentivize a certain outcome, don't be surprised when the system becomes abused to produce as much of that outcome as possible. Not to mention the implications of stripping practically every HIPA right away when 'diagnosed'.
Lol u guys. Get a few old guys together and watch the conspiracy fly!
I'm 27
haha, definitely an old soul though!Misguided soul. Your information is incorrect. Both of you.I'm 27
so you know a few nurses and a cop. Wow
Conspiracy?
Has the word conspiracy also been co-oped as yet another contranym by the Millennialese-speaking folks?
So, is it now to mean the opposite, or, a completely different meaning, from that of it's correct and accepted definition in our lexicon is; such as, where they use: Bad to mean Good, or, Dog to mean Man?
If so, I guess they are now intentionally misusing the word conspiracy to mean: fact.
Frankly, I care nary an iota; but, I do so wish he'd stick with his usual monosyllabic gruntings.
