Yes, most fungi do produce antibiotics to protect themselves against nearly all kinds of bacteria.
And many orchids can be lucky if such fitting fungi are growing close by or even on the orchid roots.

God, I think it is bad news, I hope I have not right. I have read some articles about this guy, I think it is a forever green plant: if an older growth begins to die back, you'd have to see the new one. If roots are well, there is hope. I wait for ( mostly GOOD!) news. You are the best among us with this one till this time.
