Very sick, trying to find out what is wrong?!


Question: Very sick, trying to find out what is wrong?
I have gotten very sick over the last two days i want to describe my symtoms and see if anyone knows if its pneumonia or something else... Its worse at night, and no matter how many cough drops I use I still cough until some completely solid phlegm comes up and gets stuck in my throat, so I start choking and coughing and cannot breathe. Its very scary. It never comes all the way up and I usually just fight to swallow it. I've been taking mucinex chest congestion pills and a ton of numbing and regular cough drops (they arent working)... also at night I have a fever of 101.5, chills, and cold sweat. So what do you think it is? and do you know any good medicines? (((note:ive had a flu shot)))

First, stop eating breads and dairy, that contributes to phlegm. Also cut back on eating sweets.
Eat good vegetables, and broths - chicken is great. Drink herb teas.

And see a doctor.



Try an expectorant - its helps you couhg up that phlegm.
