Spring BREAK NOT GOING AS PLANNED

SO obviously by the title, assume that my spring break is not going well!
I have been coughing for a week and finally i had had enough and told my
mom that i needed to have a doctors appt made. She said that we would go
to urgent care the next day(being saturday). So we go to urgent care and get
in the exam room and the doc looks in my throat and says we'll take a chest
X-ray, I said "okay" she goes"well take your shirt off and pput this on and we
will walk you to the xray room ok?" so mebeing my stupid self, follow the
directions but the doc hasnt left the room yet(thankfully she was a girl!) so
my mom and i and the doc had a good laugh at the thought of me not having
modesty. So when the X-rays were developed we were told that thi white stuff
behind my heart was not supposed to be there and found it to be Pneumonia!
*AHHH* i was so scared, because my mom and I thought pneumonia was that
you had to be hospitalized and breathing tubes and junk, turned out to just be
mucusthat collected into my lungs and compacted to itself. So I got antibiotics,
Mucinnex and this nasty cough syrup. I ve been on the meds for about 3 days
now and am feeling better.
