I ...RSV pneumonia left me sick for several months.<br /><br />I got it from my boys--in kids it can appear just as a mild cold; but in infants and those of us with underlying conditions, it can be really nasty.<br /><br />I was hospitalized for at least 10 days and couldn't go back to work for about a month.<br /><br />My PFT's dropped substantially and I began to require full-time O2.<br /><br />When I first came down with it, I really thought I was dying.<br /><br />One thing they did with me was to use Ribavirin. I don't know if it helped or not, but Will may want to consider it.<br /><br />It's a pain to take though as it involves nebulization all night via a mask while you sleep.<br /><br />Hope Will starts turning the corner and bounces back to baseline from this illness.Deron Arnoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17222818498103201571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8296118508425180225.post-82724054625219841682009-04-17T06:15:00.000-07:002009-04-17T06:15:00.000-07:00Sorry to hear Will is still sick.
