Probably all is OK; symptoms like this are normal for a few weeks after successful treatment of pneumonia. But check with your doctor if in doubt.

Monitor your temperature, and if you have a fever, please let your physician know. A viral illness will not respond to antibiotics. Wheezing should be treated, and you may need a course of steroids. Keep well hydrated,rest and please follow up with your physician.
