Re: Pneumonia after effects

Hi Elizabeth,

I'm so sorry that you've had to go through that. I usually just read and don't post but I wanted to say how glad I am that you are back safe.

A relative of mine had bacterial pneumonia a couple of years ago and we were actually surprised by how quickly the cough subsided. I think the docs said 6 months, but it was much quicker than that - more like 2 months.

I had covid myself in the first lockdown and that had a much longer effect. I was not able to play for 9 months, but then quite suddenly after 9 months the effect cleared and I was able to play again.

I think all you can do is be very very patient with your progress and know that things will get back to normal in time.

Things I found helped:
- Keeping a diary of progress, so you can see that things are getting better, even if slowly.
- This gadget really helped me maintain my embouchure even when not playing. It's free on UK prescription. https://www.iqoro.com/

Good luck there, and I'm really glad you are on the mend.

Jennifer

(I will go back to just reading now)
