I have been taking amox TR-K Clv for 4 days every 12 hrs on the spot with food and probiotics Although my dr has failed to communicate with me directly, I assume I have an infection in my lungs. an X-ray revealed that my lungs are not expanding nearly enough, whatever that means. MY question pertains to side effects:still having pains around my lungs , breathe mostly through the mouth, joint, leg arm pains; arm pains in my left arm in the glandular areas close to my left breast. the pain will shoot up to the shoulder and down to my hand. intense, painful.penetrating. still some coughing or choking on stuff deep in my throat. loss of appetite, diaharria , EEKG showed nothing with heart; Xray showed no pneumonia; scheduled for stress cardio event next week. I am most concerned about the pain under my arm penetrating area close to the breast. What are your thoughts? I hope you are ligit as I am majorly worried

Your symptoms seem to be related to lung infection with inflammation of the covering around the left lung.. U need to consult ur doctor with a fresh xray if the past xray was not revealing anything.
Did u have any fever or sputum production.. If yes then it is less likely to be a cardiac thing.. Plz mention your age
