I know this is a common thing a lot of share on here... But I'm really struggling today. Yesterday I woke up in the middle of the night gasping for my breath like I'd just been winded and today my chest feels really tight across the bottom (under my boobs) and I feel so lightheaded.

I'm glad people have experienced this too and I'm not alone, it was honestly so scary
I too worry about a blood clot in the lung! I recently had a d diner blood test to be checked and it came back normal but when I googled this blood test it isn't 100% garntee which worries me more
