    Thank you. My elderly father was taken to the ER since he was displaying cognitive issues such as difficulties completing sentences. At the ER he was diagnosed with Penumonia. He’s an otherwise strong and healthy man so he didn’t have coughing or breathing issues but a low grade fever. They released him with Amoxicillin with Azithromycin for 5 days. However his fever did not resolve after 5 days and the pneumonia seems like it was getting worse. That’s when his primary put him on a 10 day course of levofloxacin and by day 4 his fever resolved. Luckily it’s now been 7 days after the end of the treatment and no fever and he is weak and fatigued but seems to be on the road to recovery. I would say that Levofloxacin did save his life.

    Thank you! Can you engage in physical activity and exercise or is it better to rest?

    can you get community acquired pneumonia from traveling on airplane? How fast it can develop? Possible in 2 days after a flight or any community event?

      No. "Pneumonia" is the body pushing out waste throughout the lungs. It's a natural detoxification process of the body. You can't "catch" symptoms. You create them by creating an acidic environment in the body.

    I have severe joint pain after being treated with prednisone iv and an oral tapper at home for pneumonia. The day after I took the last one i woke up with severe joint pain. Could it be from the prednisone or should i see my doctor?

      The same thing happened to me. I was about to get my next pneumonia infection when I realized my oral health was causing my pneumonia. I have been lazy and not taking cause of my teeth. I had a mild infection in my gums and saliva was going into my lungs while I sleep. After taking care of my teeth and gums the saliva, mucus and phlegm almost went away.
