Self help

The steps below may help to ease your symptoms.

You can take painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen to relieve any pain and reduce a fever. You should not take ibuprofen if you:

are allergic to aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)have asthma, kidney disease, a history of stomach ulcers or indigestion

Cough medicines are not recommended. Coughing enables you to clear mucus from your lungs, so trying to stop your cough could make the infection last longer. Also, there is little evidence that cough medicines are effective. A warm drink of honey and lemon can help relieve the discomfort caused by coughing.

Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration and get plenty of rest to help your body recover.

If you smoke, it is more important than ever to stop as smoking damages your lungs.

Once your symptoms improve, it may take some time for you to recover fully. For example, coughing may continue for some time. Speak with your GP if you are concerned.

Jenn I am sorry to hear you have this but you are a young woman and you will recover soon I posted this Re: above have a read I hope it helps and please rest see you soon sweetheart xxx

I'll keep your seat warm, get better.

Get well soon, Jenn.

If your fever gets above 102 please contact your doc.  if you cant take aspirin or ibuprofen tylenol may help to lower your fever.  Otherwise a cold bath, or cold wet towels can help too.  If you have trouble drinking liquids due to your cough - you can thicken them a bit by making a 2/3 juice 1/3 yougurt milkshake.  ice cream milkshakes with milk added count too.  You can also take concentrated soup and add 1/3 less water.  avoid caffeine (you can have some but it is a diuretic so the fluid you consume leaves u via urine before your body has a chance to use it.  a vaporizer may help too.  I really hope you feel better soon!!!!

Have someone give you a back thumping for 5-10 min. about as hard as you can stand.

A few years back when I was in the hospital I got pneumonia and a nurse did this to me and got better almost at once.

Greetings From Ireland, Jenn, sorry your ill, get better soon. x

Hey guys... getting the kids ready for school and headed back to bed.  Thanks for all of the warm thoughts. Lots of Love...Jenn

Just get some sleep and keep the right fluids up, and make sure you eat a little, fruit would be good.

Greetings From Ireland, Jenn, sorry your ill, get better soon. x

sorry to hear you have pneumonia. Take lots of Vitamin C.   We'll miss you while you're on your medical leave

Jenn, I am sorry you are sick. Need lots of rest and liquids and powdered VitaminC.It does not have the additives that tablets have. Hope you feel better soon
