A member asked:

Had a d dimer done today to rule out further clots but can it show if my pneumonia has gotten worse? terrified of ending up with severe sepsis again.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: D-dimer is not a specific marker for pneumonia. If you are concerned about pneumonia getting worse you should see your doctor.
