Guest guest Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 Hi there--! My beleagured friend (we're going to the doctor next week over his stomach, which won't stop hurting still) has developed walking pneumonia. He has asthma, and it's pretty common for him to get pneumonia when he gets sick (which he did, two weeks ago, with a mild/moderate flu). He tells me that when the doctor gives him a round of antibiotics and a strong expectorant (usually with codiene, since all the coughing hurts), it goes away. Is there a natural remedy I can try instead? The tricky parts are a) it can't be too harsh on the stomach and b) must be alcohol-free. Thanks as always! -ST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
