Q:

I've been sick now since October 7th. I went down hard the first few days, was relatively useless, and slept as much as I was able to. After that I had a hoarse throat and yellow mucous clogging everything up that just doesn't go away. I thought I was better a week and a half ago, but then I got sick again 2 days later...or maybe it is just a singular cold. Reading other questions on here leads me to think I should come in to get checked for walking pneumonia, but aside from the first 3 days I was sick, 3 weeks back, (when I had an off and on 101-102 degree fever) I have not run a fever. Could it still be pneumonia?

 

A:

Yes, actually it could be pneumonia without fever. Call 650-3400 to set up a same day appointment. We really should check you out.
