@jillnc .. Jill, excuse my ignorance .. but I did not know what rsv was so I googled it .. were you diagnosed with: Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) causes cold-like symptoms in adults? Any new information about lungs in great to have on our Forum! Thanks for jumping in on explaining on weight loss .. it helps newer people understand what is going on in their own bodies. Hugs! Katherine

Yes.  Sorry I forget sometimes people don't know the letters.  It is more common in kids under 2 than in adults. Most adults I've told said they didn't even know adults could get it.  I didn't feel I had issues breathing, my throat just hurt so bad I couldn't stand it anymore and because of all my other issues I figured an er/hospital was better equipped than an urgent care.  Of course they don't treat rsv in adults so they sent me home as I was feeling better than when I had come in too.
