MORE COMMON IMMUNE-SYSTEM DISEASES: VIRAL PNEUMONIA
VIRAL PNEUMONIA: viral infection that involves the lungs and respiratory passages. In schools and the military, viral pneumonia is responsible for 75 percent of all lung^ infections. CMV and herpes are two of the many viruses that can cause viral pneumonia.
Signs and Symptoms: usually headache; loss of appetite; fever; aches in muscles. Patient feels weak and tired. There is a cough, usually with yellow sputum; rarely bloody.
The diseases I have listed aren’t meant to be a respresentative cross section. They are simply a few of the immune-system problems I’ve treated over the past 20-plus years. Any of the signs and symptoms I’ve described could signal impending immune-system failure.
For all its prowess, the immune system is very fragile. There are so many ways to harm it. And the signs and symptoms of immune-system failure may not become evident until the disease is firmly entrenched in your body. An innocent cough that lasts too long may be nothing. But what if it’s signaling tuberculosis or cancer? And that fever—is it nothing, or the first sign of AIDS? That’s why I feel it’s so important to get persistent signs and symptoms checked out by a physician, even if they seem trivial. Better still, adopt the Immune For Life program and prevent the signs and symptoms from occurring.
