Had pneumonia 9 wk ago. feeling 95% better. legs feel weak at times. healthy 35 yr old female. do i need to build up strength or from levaquin (levofloxacin)?

Pneumonia: 9 weeks from pneumonia is a very long time not to be back to your 100% baseline. If your were completely bedridden..then possibly. Certainly nothing to do with the antibiotics at this point. Make sure your exercising the muscles..if this persists..let your primary know.
