Some years ago I was treated in hospital for this; there was an
epidemic. Tens of thousands were infected. Fortunately most cases
were mono-lobar, i.e., involving one lung only, else the fatality rate
would likely have been much higher.
It is a very serious condition. It does respond to antibiotics,
usually, but takes a long time to clear up completely.
Interestingly, one doctor who checked my lungs asked about contact with
birds such as parrots. This was many years ago, before all the
bird-flu talk; birds have been a well-known vector for quite a long
time.
Knowing what I know now, I would attempt the alternative protocols
discussed on this list, but would not forego the standard treatment if
it is working.
Mycoplasmas are nasty; get good medical supervision, I would say.

Hello fellow SilverListers!
A dear friend of mine has developed Mycoplasma Pneumonia. He believes
he caught it from his son, a recently returned soldier who was
stationed in Iraq. The son has had a hacking cough since his return
about a month ago, and now, after a couple weeks,my friend has been
diagnosed with this Mycoplasma infection. Do any of the distinguished
member of this group have any suggestions on how to treat this
condition. Does Colloidal Silver help? Would a Terminator2 Zapper
help? I remember some discussions on this list, but I can’t recall
the conclusions. Thank you for your help!!
