It's the first time I hear that bronchitis can be named as "Mount St. Helens of respiratory ills." Interesting. :)
I had Pneumonia in primary school for two weeks and it was crazy. You feel hot and then you feel cold (that exchanges many times). You want light in your room and then you want darkness (that also exchanges many times). Well, that is how I felt among other things.
Wao, that must have been really hard. Glad you lived through it and do not have it now. I too was intrigued when I saw it was being referred to by that name.
Stay healthy and Steem on!
