Since I have dysphagia, and no longer eat "soft cookie-like" textures, and try to eat my meat carefully be chewing it down....(YEESH--it takes me forever now to eat a meal...lol), I am interested in those that have gotten "aspiration pneumonia".
First, how did you know you had it?
Second, and most importantly, how did you get rid of it?
Since it is caused by food going into your lungs, how do you get rid of the pneumonia, if the food is still there causing the bacteria? It seems to me, that if you take antibiotics, it might fight the bacteria, but the food is still there...how do you get rid of it?
