Shortness of breath since September
Went to the ED a few times, got worked up for pulmonary
embolism
but was negative. Got MRI/CT/X ray and they found nothing. It’s really frustrating as it comes and goes and some days are better than others, and I lost weight because when I eat I almost choke because I’m breathing through my mouth.

Previous venous thrombus as risk factor?
I've been doing copious amounts of reading and was quite perturbed today when the haemotologist said quite emphatically that my previous pulmonary
embolism
(being a venous thrombus) at age 18 (I'm now 40) was likely an unrelated incident and is not related to the increased risk of the posed arterial

No Treatment?!
It seems as if despite ongoing pain and problems I have to wait for an
embolism
to occur before I get any treatment? I find this shocking and risky. I was wondering what I can do? I also have pernicious anaemia and probably a form of ANCA vasculitis and/or a hint of Lupus.

Pulmonary Embolism, confidence somewhat shattered
First of all Happy New Year everyone. Since September I have been generally unwell, with a myriad of symptoms, too numerous to mention, but one problem that troubled me most, breathing problems, and the feeling of being throttled. 3 trips to A & E, had me sent away with a range of dismissive suggestions

Beware of Tachycardia.
Patients included in the study had tachycardia at more than three different clinic visits within one year of diagnosis, excluding history of pulmonary
embolism
, thyroid dysfunction, ejection fraction less than 50 percent, atrial fibrillation and a heart rate over 180 bpm.

Never had PACs before AF Episodes got closer together???
I had my first a fib episode in 2013 and was cardioverted back to NSR and was fine until I threw a Pulmonary
Embolism
in April of this year. A Fib was what made me go to the hospital and then they found the clot.

AF after Ablation
I had a pulmonary
embolism
in April and went into AF as the hallmark sign I was in trouble. I had it once 5 years ago and thought I would never get it back. Now I am post ablation, and I had one 5 hour episode 12 days after the ablation.

What could this be guys? 28 years old feel like something bad will happen
I shall also be asking my Dr on Friday to test T3 and T4 (have already had TSH) aswell as D-dimer to rule out hyperthroyidism and a Pulminory
embolism
. I know some will be related to weight now as I am now weighing 255lbs - 260lbs (18.5-19 stone) with a height off 5 foot 11.

Diagnosed with APS in 1998/99, on coumadin since 1996
I chose bed rest at home, but within a week it became a Pulmonary
Embolism
. Life long coumadin. Fast forward 22 years, I have had 3 successful pregnancies but lost 3 babies including one at 24 weeks due to HELP syndrome. I was on Lovenox for 2 of the 3 and Heprin for the other.

I litterally almost died two days ago from a pulmonary embolism.... Just hitting me.
I could see it on their faces, doctor for some reason decided to run a d dimer and sure enough they after having a CT scan confirm it, i had a pulmonary
embolism
on my right lung.
