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.
