[|Human|] I have had continuing chest infection for nearly two months. x-ray showed pneumonia in one lung and a few weeks later same in other lung. I have been on antibiotics all this time and have just recovered from head cold.Have had flu vaccinations during all this. I am in my 70s and had whooping cough vacs as a child. Dr. said I haven t got whooping cough but have had some coughing fits similar to whooping cough. Am on large doses of puffers to I guess dry out lungs of pneumonia. I have had asthma and bronchitis (mild) all my life. Some days feel as if I m getting better then symptoms come back.Please doctor tell me what is the name of this bug and when will I get better?Thanks Diana
[|AI|]  Thanks for posting your query to Chat Doctor. As I understand it is a chronic respiratory problem may develop in to Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). Improper aeration in all segment of lung because of solidification and improper Chat Doctor.  Immunity is also decreases in old age. All this factor are responsible for your problem.first you should investigate for culture and sensitivity examination of your SPUTUM to know the causative organism of pneumonia and antibiotic to treat the organism. As until and unless you will not take antibiotic properly, and completely you will not get cured .once you will be free from infection it would be easier for your clinician to give you symptomatic treatment .take care .
