      My girlfriend has been down with this for about 3 weeks now. First week, she thought it was a cold and just kept getting more and more sick. Finally went to the hospital and they found white spots on her lungs via CT. Put her on antibiotics for 7 days. At the end of the 7 days, she was still sick, but holy shit was she so much better. From barely able to walk and literally collapsing trying to use the squatting toilet at the hospital, to being able to take herself to the clinic every day, and still having energy to get food on the way home, in 7 days. Now she’s on a second round of the same antibiotics for another 5 days… hopefully she’s fully recovered, if not, I’m not sure what they’ll do other than a third round of IV antibiotics.
