The pain I'm experiencing has been excruciating, apart from antibiotics I'm only taking paracetamol because I've also got a kidney infection at this moment, anti inflammatory drugs are a no no
Anyone have any idea how long before I see some improvement? I'm still vomiting too from the meds.

I'm not sure. I finally got my problem resolved - Halelujah - after 2 mos. of suffering. A CT scan of my BELLY revealed an enormous ovarian cyst and that is why i had water in the pleura. Had total hysterectomy a week ago and am now on a slow mend.

Hello Adele oli,
I don't know the answer to your question as your issue seems a bit different than mine. I also don't know what paracetamol is. I've been taking tylenol (acetominophen) and ibuprofen (antiinflammatory). My vomiting was caused by the cyst pressing on my stomach, there was also damage to the bladder where it was adhered. Now that it is all GONE (removed surgically 12 days ago) i'm recovering nicely though still in some discomfort but i know it will take time after a major abdominal surgery. But no more nausea or vomiting. And the pain is manageable / tolerable.
I wish you a respite from the pain & vomiting and kidney infection... I hope you feel better soon.
I do still have occasional pain in my upper back from where the pleurisy / pleural effusion was... sitting in a hardback chair is uncomfortable.
