I have a case of walking pneumonia that started last Friday. Today my OB listened and was concerned that my lungs are still so inflamed and making a lot of noise. I don't have any other symptoms other than the terrible cough (except some ear ache at night) but the infection is pretty localized. I didn't have any diagnostics but I have had walking pneumonia before and this is what it feels like. Plus my son and husband both had it. My husband recovered in about 4 days. Now the OB is thinking about a chest x-ray if my lungs don't sound better by Friday. I'm very concerned as I am not even consenting to an U/S for this pregnancy. I certainly don't want a chest x-ray. I'm sure the treatment would call for ABX, which is another thing that I really don't want. Can anyone share any helpful home remedies? Thanks!
