HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the given history here I could say that if this is pure pneumonitis then this need to be treated with the proper antibiotic and full course of medicine need to be given and the best option is Amoxicillin with clavulanic acid three times in day when the course of disease finished you would fell better, take care and have a nice day.
