Hi Rach

I've never had tonsilitis, but I have had pleurisy. Pleurisy was bad and I believe tonsilitis is awful too.

When Son was diagnosed last year at A and E with both at the same time I couldn't believe he was still standing up!

I think sometimes the tougher you are the more virulent and forceful such things can be.

Son only lives a five minute walk away, so that helps in looking after him.


What is pleurisy ?? Arr so he gonna be getting you to go round all the time with things :D


Pleurisy is when the fluid around your lungs (that cushions it against the ribcage) dries up. Usually connected to a chest infection that gets worse. Although there are two types.

So when you take an intake of breath it hurts like hell. When I got it I couldn't even lift my leg, such was the impact of any movement of my back or lungs.

It's a complete git.

And I remember going up by car to A and E with Son last year. Every time the car jolted he was in pain, because his ribcage and lungs were in motion.

Rach.

You are a love, thanks for your concern.

He will be fine I think. When he is ill he is VERY ill, but he has an amazing capacity to just bounce back a few days later.
