Recovery story after being hospitalized at Naserat General Hospital due to pneumonia

 

 

 

I went to the otolaryngology clinic with symptoms of a cold and body ache.
But in the end, I found out it was pneumonia.
I spent five days on outpatient treatment, but I didn't get any better at all.
I was hospitalized at Nazereth General Hospital upon the recommendation of my outpatient internal medicine doctor.
After a 4-day hospitalization and treatment, I have recovered and am now only taking cough medicine.

Last month, my child had a persistent fever and was coughing a lot.
These days, Mycoplasma and such are really trendy.
So I went to the pediatrics and was told it wasn't pneumonia, so I took medication.
I had never given my child alternating fever medication until they reached fifth grade.
This time, they refused so much that I had to keep taking the medications together.
My fever kept going up and down all day long.
Later, I was fully recovered and living healthily.

However!! After the child recovered, I started to show symptoms of a cold and flu.
I thought it was just a cold, so I went straight to the ENT clinic.
I took the medication for two days, but the symptoms reappeared and I started to feel pain again.
I went back to the ENT department and after listening to the chest,
They called the nearby internal medicine department, saying it seems to be pneumonia.
When I had an X-ray taken at the internal medicine department, it was confirmed.
A blood test is performed to confirm whether it is Mycoplasma.
I also had a CT scan done by the radiology department for an accurate diagnosis.
The conclusion was the same.
They told me I would be in a lot of pain because my lungs are filled with fluid.
Still, I thought I would get better if I took medicine, so I stubbornly endured for two days.
I was sick for four days and naturally thought I would get better.
But on the fifth day, I really felt like I was going to die.
I didn't have a fever, but starting from the fifth day, I developed a fever.
When I went back to the internal medicine department, the doctor said it was Mycoplasma.
It seems that the condition has worsened.
You have been advised to be hospitalized at a general hospital.
Since the first-line antibiotics are not effective, they need to be hospitalized to receive second-line antibiotics.

 

 

 

You immediately wrote a referral letter and went to Nazarene General Hospital Gastroenterology.
They looked at the CT results and admitted me to the hospital.
Perhaps the child has not been diagnosed with Mycoplasma, but
They said it was probably transmitted to the child. Sigh...

I had an X-ray, blood test, and electrocardiogram before hospitalization.
And I was admitted to a double room.
They said they will proceed with second-line antibiotic treatment.
Children may experience side effects from second-line antibiotics even if first-line antibiotics are ineffective.
They say it's difficult to use second-line antibiotics.

 

 

 

As soon as I was admitted, I received antibiotics and vitamins... haha
However, that night, the fever gradually began to rise.
Because my body started to hurt so much.
I immediately called the nurse and said I was in pain.
They gave me an antipyretic and pain reliever, and as soon as I took it, my fever dropped sharply and I stopped hurting.
I like that being hospitalized allows for immediate action to be taken.
I was still in pain until the second day.
From the third day onwards, even the severe cough gradually decreased in frequency.
I couldn't breathe well, but now that's gone.
The growling sound has also subsided.
My sore throat, which was so painful I couldn't even swallow water, doesn't hurt anymore.
The phlegm that used to be yellow has also decreased.
Above all, I was so glad that the pain I felt throughout my body was gone.

On the third day of hospitalization, I suddenly started coughing severely while sleeping in the early morning.
A nurse ran over and checked without being called and immediately gave me the medication.
It seems that the coughing sounds were all heard because it was early morning.
On the fourth day, I was genuinely amazed at how completely I recovered.
Usually, they say you stay hospitalized for about 5 days due to pneumonia.
It seems to be the weekend, and perhaps because the attending doctor is on vacation starting the next day.
They discharged me on the fourth day.

 

 

 

And the day after I was discharged!!
My husband, who took over my duties while I was hospitalized, also suffered from pneumonia.
Because I knew that staying longer would only worsen the condition.
Go directly to internal medicine to get a referral letter.
My husband was also admitted to Nazareth General Hospital.
I was assigned to the same hospital room, in the same spot, haha.
My husband also received treatment on the same course as me and was discharged after four days.
My husband has fully recovered and returned.
I had my last appointment last Wednesday.
The pneumonia symptoms have completely recovered.
However, I only received a one-week supply of cough medicine because I still have a lingering cough.
I am still experiencing a lingering cough.
My husband had his last appointment last Friday.
I recovered completely without any aftereffects, and I have no lingering cough, so I didn't take any medication.

Among pneumonia, what we have contracted is Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
I've heard that this is trendy, lasts a long time, and causes a lot of pain, but
Wow... I didn't realize it would hurt this much.
It was the most painful hospital I have ever experienced.
If you get pneumonia, do not try to treat it just with medication; be sure to receive inpatient treatment.
People who have had pneumonia often experience lingering aftereffects.
So, instead of suffering like me and not getting treatment,
Definitely!! I recommend being hospitalized early for treatment.

 

 

And the reviews of Nasaet General Hospital are overall very satisfactory.
Since most medical departments are available, interdisciplinary consultations are also possible.
Facilities are equipped to perform necessary tests immediately.
The hospital itself is comfortable, and the nurses are also kind and nice when you are hospitalized.
The rice generally comes out clean and quite good.
I especially like that there is a near-general hospital close to my house.
