From the CT/X-rays, Mom may have a partially collapsed lung, which I saw in the original x-ray from the ER visit when I was home. There probably isn't fluid INSIDE her lung but on the outside, which may be what is causing the pneumonia. That's why they want to check the fluids.
Her doctor will call me tomorrow after evaluating how mom does on the new antibiotics...at which time, we may have to do the fluid test. Hopefully that will help her get better if we drain her chest.
