Hello,
A pulmonary embolus presents with the sudden onset of chest pain and shortness of breath. The pain is sharp and worsens when taking a deep breath which is often due to involvement of pleuracausing pleuritic chest pain. You are 23 years of age and not constantly immobile due to your profession, hence chances of this chest pain being due to pulmonary embolism are less. However you can consult a physician and get it examined. Pulmonary angiogram is the best test for pulmonary embolism.

What could it be? I was in the ER last night for chest tightening, pain, and shortness of breath. They did a cat scan and ruled out PE, blot clot on my lungs, and prescribed me an inhaler t i use for when if I get the tightening in my chest anymore.

Im having a pain in my chest.
m 18 years old and starting at the beginning of this month I began to experience chest pain/chest discomfort. I had several episodes where my chest felt as if it was beating out of my chest, tingling limbs, shortness of breath, etc. Within the course of this year I've been to the ER five times (at three different hospitals) searching for a diagnosis. Everytime I've been pushed away with the it's anxiety or indegestion speech.

My pain is located on the left side and it doesn't move yesterday my arm was numb for a large portion of the day.
Bad chest pain in pregnancy can be the sign of a pulmonary embolism, which is basically a blood clot in the lung. It may not be that, of course, but a pulmonary embolism is common in pregnant women (even young women) and can cause sudden death, so I really think you should go to an e.r. immediately. There is a simple blood test that can look for evidence of a p.e.
and i am home now but the pain keeps coming and going.
This can cause chest pain, shortness of breath or coughing up phlegm tinged with blood. In severe cases it can be fatal. PE can happen hours or even days after the DVT has formed, and may occur when there have been no obvious signs of a DVT. You should seek emergency medical treatment if you have symptoms of PE.
If you had a blood clot in your lungs you would be spitting up blood or suffering from excruciating chest pain. The lump in your throat and waking up at night is due to the stress and anxiety your body is going through. If you are still worried I would recommend seeing a therapist so you can develop ways to combat your anxiety.
I had been quiet lazy at home prior to this as I was off work due to shoulder injury and was finishing an essay on laptop. Over next couple of days pain moved to back of knee like stabbing pain. Pain to touch, when leg is very straight or when I'm in bed. Relievied by crossing my legs for short period then pain comes back. No swelling, discoloration, or extra pain when walking on it. Went to Dr who diagnosed thrombophlebitis and have me a anti inflammatory cream and antibiotics yesterday.
I have asthma and have been dealing with chest tightness/coughing for months but felt as if it was worse with the calf pain. Genuinely thought I had a blood clot in my leg and lungs. No risk factors but my anxiety has convinced me I have it. I went to a&e and they examined both legs, measuring size difference. Nothing abnormal, they also did an EKG which was also fine, along with 3 blood tests. A full blood count, a clotting test, and an eeg test I think it's called.
