There's no simple answer because it depends on how far the pneumonia was worked itself into your system, your age, weight, and your body's unique way of handling the healing process. For example, though, if you have pretty serious pneumonia, and your lungs are fairly infected, you'll need about a week in bed resting (each day should get better, though for the first few it'll be exhausting even to get up to go the the rest room), followed by up to 4 weeks to get your strength back. Again, depending on your fitness and activities during that time, you could be back to normal in as little as a week or as much as 2 months. Always, always consult with your doctor of you don't sense any improvement over a few days. It's rare, but an infection that gets worse can be fatal.

Do the newest FDA approved antibiotics for bacterial infections help with pneumonia?
You should only use the antibiotics that are SPECIFIC to the bacteria. If this is a viral pneumonia, antibiotics will not work. Antibiotics only work on bacteria. Antivirals work on viruses and antifungals work on fungi. The thing with antibiotics is that some only work on some bacteria and not on others. A sputum culture should be done to see which microbe is causing the problem and then see which drug will do the job. It is much quicker to do it this way and safer, in the long run, for the patient.

Should someone who has already had pneumonia get the pneumonia vaccine?
Yes, if you are otherwise a candidate for the vaccine (there are age and health considerations as well as whether you have been vaccinated for it in the past), you should get vaccinated since pneumonia can be caused by different microbes, some types are viral, some types are bacterial, and even some more rare types are fungal. The type of pneumonia you had may be different than the types that are protected by the currently available pneumococcal pneumonia vaccine (aka the "pneumonia vaccination").Pneumococcal pneumonia is caused by pneumococcus bacteria. There are more than 80 different types of this bacteria that can cause pneumonia. The most common 23 of these types are included in the current vaccination. So even if you had one of the types of pneumonia that was caused by this bacteria, you can still be susceptible to the other types.
