We cannot diagnose here, we are not clinicians. But I am curious: what were the tests that were done? I assume you were tested for Pulmonary Emboli (blood clots in the lung) which can be triggered by pregnancy and child birth. But it is worrying and you must persist with your doctors. Are you in the UK? If so that would be your GP, in USA that would be primary care doctor. Have you been referred to specialist in lung diseases?

All the best and let us know if you get any further with your concerns.

Keep insisting that you want and need to know why this is happening. It may be nothing to worry about but you need to know for your peace of mind. Let us know how you are. Love Bernadette xxx
