Coordinator just called me back during dialysis. Now they’re waiting for another test to confirm the initial antibody test. So we wait. It’s an emotional roller coaster ride for sure.

Chest X-ray came back. This is probably the 4th one this year. It was free of plural effusion and pneumothorax.
A pneumothorax is a collapsed lung. A pneumothorax occurs when air leaks into the space between your lung and chest wall. This air pushes on the outside of your lung and makes it collapse. Pneumothorax can be a complete lung collapse or a collapse of only a portion of the lung.
They’re probably waiting for another test unless they’re looking for evidence of pneumonia or TB.
