Your shortness of breath, following the pneumonia should be evaluated. A pulmonary function test may be helpful. The chest radiograph and your symptoms could indicate additional treatment is recommended. Did you have a sputum culture or a COVID 19 screening test? Wre you on antibiotics? Please follow up, and a virtual consult with Healthtap is available.
