I had breast cancer in 2001, melanoma in 2002. My health, despite the cancer, was reasonably good until about 5 years ago. I took the pneumonia vaccine, but still had a really bad case of pneumonia. Hospitalized for several days, then 3 months later had it again. Since that time I have had lots of trouble with my lungs.
