Exercise after pneumonia

2 replies

Hi ladies
I had pneumonia before Christmas and I'm all better now. Since then I've found on the rare occasions I exercise I wheeze, loose my breath and am sometimes dizzy. I've put weight on and would like to jog and attend a class again. Can anyone advise on what I can do to fix this?
Thank you

I would go to the doctors to get it checked as I would of thought you should be improving by now, depends on the severity of the pneumonia though I guess.
I had pneumonia and pleurisy before Christmas too and my breathing is back to normal now and has been for a couple of months.
I struggled for quite a while but built up very gradually using a walk/run combination(still walking some now). Barely pushing myself at all to avoid over exerting.
