I dealt with the FUO for a year and a half before they figured it out. Since the tube I have aspirated twice from reflux so there is more than one way to get pneumonia. Wasn't serious enough to check into the hospital though - just rode it out at home and it was the typical chills/fever/fever break in less than 12 hours thing. The last time I saw the eye doctor they told me I had developing cataracts as well. My hearing also sucks but after 50+ years standing next to the ride cymbal, I'm not surprised. Indeed Medicare has saved my ass more than once!
