Pleuritic type pain on left side, not interested in eating as it hurts to do so. I’ve had pneumonia 3 times in the last 18 months with recurring dry pleurisy.

Hi,
This seems like pleurisy with pleural effusion it causes that severe dull heaviness and pain,so you need to see a pulmonologist as soon as you can
Hi..
Thanks for the query..
Your symptoms can be due to Pleurisy..
Consult a Pulmonologist and get evaluated by a chest x ray can be done for confirmation..
Hope this helps..
Regards.
Hi
This is pleurisy
Recurrence rate suggest that you have another underlying condition, it could be,
Autoimmune disease , lymphoma or pancreatitis ,
Best way to heal faster is to have an early healthy breakfast (I know it is painful)
Good luck
