Anyone ever have Pleurisy?

[psteng19]

I think I have it.
Been doing a self diagnostics by entering my symptoms into google.
Never heard of it before I did this search.

Anyway, I'll be going to see my PCP tomorrow to get it checked out.
Just wanted to hear if anyone else has had this before... pains when breathing deep, breathlessness, etc.

had a girlfriend that had it.
bad news this stuff is.
it ended up collapsing one of her lungs and she had to have surgery before it was all over.
early diagnosis and pompt treatment is the way to go with this!

I had it a couple times when I was in my late teens and early twenties. I went to the docotor as soon as I was having discomfort and was diagnosed. He gave me some pills and maybe a shot, don't know can't remember its been over ten years.

If you do have it make sure you go ahead and see a doc. It can lead to some nasty stuff like pnuemonia and collapsed lung.

Yes.. it was HORRIBLE.. i let it go for a while.. it got so bad that i couldnt get off my couch. I had to get picked up by my mother and brought to the hospital. By the time i got pain killers, i was past the worst part.
