I am suffering from influenza or a like-virus. My temp hovers around 100 but is controlled by ibuprofen. In addition to nausea, headache, dizziness, chills and aches, I am unable to take deep breaths without chest tightness and pain, which triggers coughing attacks. My coughs are sometimes dry, sometimes productive. A sneeze is incredibly painful in my chest. I went to the doctor yesterday, and blood-oxygen and lungs seemed fine. Today my shallow breathing and related difficulties are worse. Could this be pneumonia?
