David,
First, sending good thoughts that you continue to show that pnuemonia who is boss!
And, totally agree with you about the vaccinations. Until I got PN - the sickest I ever got in my life was every few years with the flu - after starting getting shots (worked in administration at a hospital and they kinda made us get them) - found I went for years without getting sick when I got my shots every year - they seemed to really help.

Also had a pneumonia vaccine once after we lost a family member in 5 days from complications of the flu that turned into severe pnuemonia - and I had a bad reaction to it for a couple of days - red swollen armband - but - I feel protected now and glad I did it....

I know lots of people think that the shots give you the disease - but its not true of course (side-affects maybe).... I hope all that can get vacinated! (now that I'm on IVIG no shots - they IVIG "juice" takes the place of the shots)

Hoping you feel better and stronger each day.....
