Stubborn and pneumonia


Fluttershyfan94

Ever been so stubborn that even though you're all aching you prefer to toughen it out. Well I did and learned that sometimes there's being stubborn and sometimes there is just being stupid.

 

I had been sick for three to four weeks, constantly coughing until I couldn't breath. I felt like one night something happened to my ribs as I was coughing so hard. Then a week or two later, what happens is that I start feeling excruciating pain in my left kidney and back. What I did was of course just lay in bed and try to make the pain stop by watching anime. It went on like that for hours, just stinging pain. This had began the day before, I felt pain but decided to just go to bed. Then on the third day I had a hard time breathing deeply, I knew something was wrong. Then as I talked to my mother I told her that I had this sting and she talked about me having to go to a doctor. Like people on here had already recommended I should do.

 

But I dislike doctors, so I wasn't going to a doctor. Of course that is no problem, unless your problem needs to be cured by pills which it did. Anyway, later that day which was yesterday I was eating when I felt the sting again but it was getting worse again. So my parents asked me and the first thing they did was sent me to a hospital. Actually I did meet my old doctor that, I don't see the doctors a lot so a familiar face is good. He checked and said it was no doubt that it was pneumonia. Due to us coming late, it actually costed more and well in the end it was just stupid not to go to a doctor. Especially since I have asthma and any lung problems should not be ignored. I have had pneumonia before when I was a kid but now it was different since I managed to diagnose it early on. I knew it was pneumonia but I also knew that I needed medicine for it. I was going to ignore it for longer and that could have had bad effects especially as my lungs are already more sensitive.

 

What's funny is that was also a medicine for the coughing.

 

Anyway, here I'm just trying to get better I guess. That could have ended badly if I had been more stubborn.

 

So let's get back to business shall we.

I hate going to the doctor too and there have been a few times where I probably should have went but didn't. I panic when I'm in a hospital for some reason. Makes me feel like I'm going to die and that I'm in an unsafe place

That's how I feel as well, I don't like it.

I just feel extremely uncomfortable in hospitals, I don't know why...perhaps it's a combination of the lack of privacy and the fact that people go there to die almost if they don't make it...it just get really anxious when I'm in one
