Question: Is it possible? Please help!?
Answers:
It is possible that it has been missed.
Is his sputum a green color? That is serious if it is.
A culture can be taken by his doctor. If his infection and breathing
are impaired I would seek a referral to a pulmonologist if the doctor isn't
treating him properly.

It is possible for pneumonia NOT to show up on an x ray because its either n its early stages or its in a part where you cant see in the x ray. Your friend should take some blood test or a sputum test also because those are helpful in detecting pneumonia.
