I have had pneumonia a couple of times and it can be really rough. It usually took a long while to get back to normal - a month or so of complete crap and then 4-5 months to get my strength back. It is serious stuff.
Although I admit the one good thing was that I could sleep - I did not have insomnia at all until they put me on the steroids.
