Great job Paul! I have been fighting off some infections for the past few weeks that had very similar, scary, quick courses, but have hit recovery each time. When you know that you are going to win, the fight moves into your favor tremendously.

My case - a few weeks ago I contracted pneumonia - within a couple of days went from perfectly good lung function to over 80% infected with pneumonia, could not walk 30 feet without oxygen - and with oxygen was down to 60% pulse ox - fell asleep as soon as I got back to the bed. Two days later - no oxygen, walked about a mile with no stopping. Lungs continue to improve and strength better by the day.

Fight on - don't let doubts creep in, bumps in the road, not roadblocks.

Glad to hear you are recovering well.
Dan
