Are Shortness Of Breath, Sneezing And Sweating Symptoms Of Pneumonia?

HI I was diagnosed with pneumonia around mid april. . They gave the medications and one of them was an inhaler which I kept using until it was done. During this , I kept running out off breath. I don t have the inhaler any more. Now , is been 4 months since my ER visit. I run out of breath with just sneezing, which takes me a while to get back to my normal breathing rate. My mucus is sometimes clearish and greenish-yellow, but small amounts . Also, wheezing, but no cough and sometimes I sweat a little.I ve been going for am runs here and there and pacing myself I can go maybe 1-2 minutes before I ran out of breath. Sometimes I feel chest/back pain but I cant tell if its lungs or just muscle soreness. I don t smoke. SO does it mean that I still have pneumonia? Did it turn into bronchitis or walking pneumonia(which I ve heard of?)
