Bronchitis or pneumonia?????

A few weeks ago I had cold like symptoms...running nose, sneezeing, cough (sometimes productive ) the color was yellowish...so I know it was an infection

I still have a VERY BAD COUGH, with some nose blowing...but not a runny nose.

Now I have had both bronchitis and pneumonia before. I usually do get bronchitis once or twice a year.....& the one tme I had pnemnia I had no clue as it just showed up on an x-ray

This time but when I cough if it is productive it is like watery saliva looking stuff that comes out. Other times I cough it is a dry NONPRODUCTIVE constant cough.

Since it does not feel or look like bronchitis could it be pneumonia again?

Pneumonia doesnt usually come together with a runny nose and sneezing, and rarely coughs. The first symptoms of it are usually a high fever and getting tired very easily.
Ive had pneumonia a couple of times, and ive never coughed.

The symptoms you described point much more at bronchitis, and since you say you've had it several times, it might very well be acute bronchitis, which seemingly heals, but remains dormant in your body only to relapse at another time when your immune system is weekend.

Check with a doctor though, they will tell you the exact result!

I have pneumonia right now, I have been fighting a high temp for a few days with nausea and some vomiting. Based on your symptoms I would say this if you did have pneumonia it is very mild. I hope you feel better
