My husband is on peritoneal dialysis. He has a kidney donor but we have been fighting pneumonia for 9 months now and its holding up the transplant. He recently had a broncoscope done to help with diagnosis as antibiotics were not working. Inconclusive results. Were told to wait 3 months and do another CT Scan. Anybody else deal with this?

Was he tested for Covid? I was diagnosed with pneumonia last September and it was horrible, took forever to get rid of it. Then my son and my mom (who lives with me) all got it too. I’m thinking now that we all had Covid and didn’t know it.
