Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The given symptoms are not related with the pneumonia but it seems to be due to some neurological deficit and psychological disorders and all these could be due to age, it may be temporary so just wait for few days and it will come around, if not then you have to get evaluate the psychoneurological disorders.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtar Husain
