[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure negative chest x-rays mean there is no pneumonia. My kid was diagnosed with mycoplasma pneumonia based on nasal swab. Two weeks later, DH developed a terrible cough, and I got sick 24 hours later. His doctor sent him for chest x-rays and they were negative. The next day, I went to an urgent care and the NP there said that x-rays tend to not come back positive on adults with mycoplasma, and given our exposure, I likely have it (and all covid/flu tests were negative) and she prescribed the Z-pak. His doctor also finally prescribed antibiotics. I don't know why they don't run a nasal swab tests on adults for mycoplasma. I'm not saying you have mycoplasma (and will not that we never had sore throats.) In any event, I hope you feel better soon. [/quote]
