Recuperate

Consider the following sentence:


"In Chicago I got a serious case of bronchial pneumonia and while I was RECUPERATING one of our neighbors brought me several of his son’s lead soldiers."


In this context, does the verb 'recuperate' mean 'to recover'?


And is that a more formal word than 'to recover'?
