Symptoms of pneumonia caused by bacteria usually come on quickly. They may include:

Cough. You will likely cough up mucus (sputum) from your lungs. Mucus may be rusty or green or tinged with blood.
Fever.
Fast breathing and feeling short of breath.
Shaking and "teeth-chattering" chills. You may have this only one time or many times.
Chest pain that often feels worse when you cough or breathe in.
Fast heartbeat.
Feeling very tired or feeling very weak.
Nausea and vomiting.
Diarrhea.

Cough that brings up a greenish or yellowish mucus; sometimes hemoptysis occurs
Fever and chills
Stabbing or sharp chest pains that worsen during deep respiration
Rapid, shallow breathing
Shortness of breath
Sometimes the following signs and symptoms of pneumonia are also experienced:


Headache
Excessive sweating and skin that is clammy to the touch
Loss of appetite
Severe Fatigue
Older adults sometimes may experience confusion
Crackle sounds from the lungs may be heard through a stethoscope.

Symptoms are (at least mine were)- body aches, fever, severe cough, stuffy head, chills, wheezing, sometimes you get pain in the chest or trouble breathing if it's severe enough. If in doubt, go to the dr asap. It's nothing to mess around with. The dr may do a chest x-ray. Mine didn't, she could just tell by listening. It was in my left lung.
