Hi,
Hot flashes, cold sweats, fatigue, and rash on the chest are not typical symptoms of pneumonia. Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs that typically causes symptoms such as cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, fever, and chills. If you are experiencing these symptoms, it is important to consult a doctor to determine the cause. They may be able to diagnose the condition and recommend appropriate treatment.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
