Pneumonia Recovery

Updated

I am recovering from a severe case of pneumonia, beginning in March. I was given levofloxacin and, following recurrence a steroid. Two weeks ago the pulmonologist said my lungs were clear (xray). However I am still short of breath and have some discomfort in my chest. Is this just part of the recovery. process? Do you recommend another antibiotic?
