Help, please Sandman or whoever, I

Posted by Nightmare Zombie on February 07, 2007 at 18:54:18:

I put a post here not long ago about whether to use my BiPap when I had the flu. I went to the

doctor today and they did chest X-Rays. I have bad case of pneumonia in my left lung. My right

isn't much better. The doc in Urgent Care gave me antibiotics to take twice a day with food and lots of fluids.

I have to go back to see my own doc on Friday to see if they helped enough or if I have to go

into the hospital! I don't have medical insurance and that would "break the bank".

NOW, (sorry to shout - no underlines) should I use my BiPap or not?

Help - I'm getting scared! I can't tell you how much it would mean to me!
