Thanks to all.

I really do wonder if there is a pneumonia connection. I was on a high dose of Levaquin, 4x/day of albuterhol & Isaproprium Bromide breathing treatments and Hydra Codone. The last week I have been just trying to get away from the meds and adding anything was not in my mindset, but I appreciate the Motrin suggestion for its anti-inflammatory action.

The RICE advice: Rest is pretty easy. I work from home and have that luxury. ICE is easy. Wife has migraines, so we have like 10 Ice-Paks in the freezer. Compress, now this one I am a little fuzzy on. Do I need to go the pharmacy and get an elastic knee brace??? Elevate, no problem, I can run my business reclined with the laptop on a pillow on my belly (who is jealous of that)

I really want to get past this and if I have to will go get it drained but I am kind of a wiener and will try not to if I can

Thanks again and I will keep you posted.

Jay
