I had walking pneumonia in 2014 that was misdiagnosed and untreated for months. I ended up in the hospital for 2 months and as my body became septic I had liver failure, kidney failure and my heart stopped but they got the paddles on quick. The pneumonia developed a complication called Empyema (blood and puss filled sacks in and around the lungs that have to be drained by drilling holes in your chest and attaching it to suction. The pneumonia bacteria I had was not from either the US or Europe and it was resistant to every known antibiotic. The CDC sent some nice folk down from Atlanta to visit me and I was placed in full isolation. There were 30 cases of the same kind at the hospital. I am the only survivor of that little epidemic. Long story. Don't play around with this.

Damn bro I'm sorry to hear that my doc said I had strep then I went back today cause I still felt like they weren't catching what was going on and got diagnosed with walking pneumonia got prednisone to help with the wheezing and everything bro gonna rest up it just really sucks this shit had to happen though I should b good in a week

Dickkhead's picture

Any idea why he his assuming it is viral not bacterial? Did he culture the sputum? Prednisone is a steroidal general strong anti-inflammatory drug that should most definitely help you breathe easier. Did he do a chest x-ray? There isn't any mistaking what pneumonia looks like on an x-ray. What tools exactly did your doctor avail himself of to conclude a diagnosis of pneumonia bro? I'm no medicine man bro, but if you have bacterial pneumonia and you're sitting back waiting for it to disappear without antibiotic, you're gonna be very sick.

He prescribed me zythromax strong antibiotic yea had an x-ray I'm sure I'll be fine in a couple of days I'll keep you updated man

Get that take care of before you get back into things. You can work through a cold, but this is potentially serious. Good luck.

Thanks bro yea I'm not even gonna pin today I'll let the antibiotics do their job they gave me a ton of shit promethazine, zpak,inhalers so I defineltly need to chill with for a couple of days thanks for the support guys

A11starstud21's picture

I always kept going as scheduled but I usely went and just sweated it out in the suna for about 30min. Drank lots of water and rested lots.

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

Outlawthing's picture

I would keep pinning for stable blood levels but take a week off to rest and get better immune system is working overtime x2 get rid of drinks and tooth brushes ect hope you get better

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

Thanks bro input is much appreciated

I have never stopped my cycle during colds or sinus/throat infections. I keep going with the cycle, but slow down on the gym intensity. I also take vitamin c during a cold. Like vhman said its really down to you and how you feel. I like to push through and continue my planned cycle. Just go with how you feel and listen to your body. If you think you are not getting everything out of your cycle due to illness, then stop and continue later.

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

Yeah I'm hoping with the z pack I'm good in a couple days I'll stick with it

cltleo's picture

I dont see a reason not to stay committed to your cycle. you should feel better around 24hrs, like you said day 2.

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

Yeah you definitely right brother and thanks for the support

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

Thanks brother appreciate it and will do

vhman's picture

How long have you been on this cycle?

I would pin, but try to rest and get better for a week, then start out slow and build back up. Listen to your body.

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

It's my second week

vhman's picture

Since you just started, you could stop and start back up when you're better. It's really up to you and how you feel and how bad you think your cold is. Food for thought.

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

Thanks bro I think I'll be good in a week I'll stick with the pinning just will take a week off gonna drive me crazy though lol

If it's just strep keep your pinning schedule on Tract take a week off to rest up then hit it full force , your body will thank you. One week will not kill you to rest

Damn well I guess it will be better for me in the long run off the rest of the week it is

BigThing's picture

I agree. Few days of antibiotics and you should be good and a little rest will not affect your cycle much. Take some extra vit c as well.

Awaken The BeAsT's picture

Yeah I'm gonna be on the z pack so I should be good to go in a week
