[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 307846, member: 1991"] A number of different things can cause pneumonia. I would also consider whooping cough - the chest pain (I cracked a rib firm coughing, that caused chest pain) is typical. I also began with pleurisy and a hint of pneumonia. husband didn't have the pleusiy & pneumonia with whooping cough though. However, the amount of gunk you cough up with whooping cough is extraordinary. A suggestion (still gross) - get him a pathology specimen cup and get him to collect his mucus, tell him you're going to take it to the doctor to get it tested. As his chest gets more painful, he may have less success in coughing up the mucus. So the problem from that side may ease. Of course, it becomes a worry for other reasons though. Marg [/QUOTE]
