I hope I never get it again, not fun. I thought I was done for good,

It's especially terrible for those of us who live alone, cooking is almost impossible and even buying groceries was a chore, I had to beg the grocery store to deliver some food, Thanks softflower for bringing it up.
hugs, Terry

scary stuff, get your shot

I am getting mine soon.

I'm afraid of the shot, my friend died after getting it.

Allergic to shot; so take my chances. Yes, it is hard living alone; when you really need help (such as being very ill).

A good video thanks Holly, gotta stress the early diagnosis and treatment being important, that goes same for lung infections. The sooner treated the more chance of a swift recovery and less chance of further lung damage.

I had my pneumonia shot way back, on the same day I had my flu jab, just felt tired for 2-3 days but apart from that ok for me.

Definitely would rather sacrifice a few days being tired than risk further damage to lungs.

Keep well this winter all.

With our disease, could be a death sentence not getting your shot.

Wife had pneumonia and shingles shot. Doctor recommended shingles shot right after she recovered from episode of shingles.
