Hi,
I am not on any immunity suppressants.I remember them saying that it was both bacteria and viral - is that possible?
I can see that it will be a while, but.....
thanks my friend fairly common for a (viral) infection such as a cold, the flu, etc to develop into a bacterial infection such as pneumonia. so yes, could have both. the bacterial infection will require antibiotics. the viral infection, maybe antivirals, but often we have to let the body's immune system deal with the infection and we just treat the symptoms.

sue,
it seems the bacteria infection was in the blood = hence lots of antibiotics.....
I always learn so much from you and others here.
I can't remember being this sick... yes pain, but not this sick; there is such a huge difference..
thanks
