pleurisy

[tooj]

Can anyone advise how long it takes to recover from pleurisy. My relative has been sufering from it for six weeks now and doesnt seem to be getting better although he has had two or three lots of antibiotics from his GP

Impossible to answer the question unless one knew the cause of the pleurisy............sorry.

I had pleurisy a couple of years ago and it took me 3 months to get back to normal. I think each person's recovery is different.I hope they get better soon, it's a horrible thing to have :(
