UAB is where Beatrice Hahn was for years. That's awesome that you're down there.
Just out of curiosity, what antibiotic did he write for? And FYI, Mucinex isn't a very well-liked drug among pharmacists. You have to be at the max dose to notice much of any effect (although if you use it at high enough doses it actually becomes a skeletal muscle relaxant. I've compounded it for use in horses as a three-part anesthesia regimen).
Best of luck. Hopefully you start feeling better soon and can figure out what's kept you down.

What is interesting about the one lung? That’s what my Son had was just one lung with the glassy stuff as the doctor put it.
