Worse than having a baby! I have had 3 bouts of pleurisy since Christmas and each time i have ended up in hospital and prescribed morphine. The pain is indescribable and I have a high pain threshold so DON'T muck about.... phone NHS helpline or doctor and get pain relieve asap and get checked out for lung blood clots and or a heart attack! NHS in Oxford have been wonderful checked me out each time "Just pleuisy " ouch.

Hello Anne.

Ouch!! For sure. Oh no. 😨 I am so sorry you have had three hours of the dreaded pluerisy. How awful. I have had it but once. I remember the pain. Please take care and take everything easy.

Warm wishes,

Cas xx 🌞🐳

My hospital call is Pneumonia.

Every time taken to hospital with it, I like you have developed a high resistance to pain but some pain defies you and says " RESISTANCE IS FUTILE ".

Keep up the resistance :-)
