Hi, please stop worrying, as the symptoms with pulmonary embolism are usually progressive. Embolism is more common in people who are immobilized. Besides if there is a clot in the lungs, it would have showed in the tests done. In the absence of which it’s unlikely that you have clot in the lungs. So, stop worrying.

Symptoms of a Pulmonary Embolism
Symptoms of a pulmonary embolism depend on the size of the clot and the location in your lung where it becomes lodged.
The most common symptom of a pulmonary embolism is shortness of breath. This may be gradual or sudden. If you experience sudden shortness of breath, you should seek medical attention immediately.
Last Wednesday, 7 days ago, I woke up feeling bad. Like I had the flu but I wasn't sick. Later that night I began having a bad, deep throbbing in my right upper arm/shoulder. My arm was slightly swollen and cold like ice and felt real tight. This has happened before, but not accompanied with pain. I had insurance then and went to the dr and he didn't think or do anything of it. Along with my arm, my left leg was really weird feeling. I don't know how to describe it.

d do a pulmonary arteriogram or a MRI to find them. Do you have symptoms of a pulmomary embolism, like lung pain etc?
Or maybe these are new embolisms that traveled from the legs. They'd maybe do a compression sonogram on the legs to identify a source,
The simplest they might do would be a D-dimer blood test, to look for substances that occur when your system is naturally breaking down any clots.
Does it usually hurt in your chest if you had a pulmonary embolism? I'm having pain in my right side.. right under my breast and kind of around the side. My leg hurt for just a bit last night and then a little while after that I started hurting and freaked out because a blood clot was the first thing I thought of. It's not a constant pain.. It's just there when I move a certain way.
The symptoms do relate to a heart problem. It can be chest rib cage's connective tissue or the skelatal structure. It could be respiratory as there is an event with deep breath...pulmonary pleurisy or embolism, etc. worst case scenarios.
Wheezing, characteristic of asthma, can occur due to pulmonary embolism, which are clots to the lung) but there is no confirmed relationship between asthma and emboli. It is sometimes difficult to distinguish acute bronchitis from asthma, unless the former is accompanied by cough productive of discolored sputum.
Two comprehensive studies, Prospective Investigation of Pulmonary Embolism Diagnosis and Prospective Investigative Study of Acute Pulmonary Embolism Diagnosis highlight the importance of clinical probability assessment
in patients with suspected PE. Clinical probability assessment in the Prospective Investigation of Pulmonary Embolism Diagnosis study was standard, sometime ago. . With this scoring system, 66.7% of the patients in the high probability group, 20.
So I had what I and the doctors thought was pneumonia for 4 months. My symptoms were pleural pain, difficulty breathing, and fatigue. I had numerous x-rays, CT scans, visits to my GP and a pulmonologist, plus an emergency room visit when I couldn't breathe due to rib and chest pain, plus three rounds of antibiotics, but they could only diagnose pneumonia.
Sharp pains in chest and right side of neck with dizziness can be due to severe gastric reflux or pulmonary embolism or pulmonary hypertension. Both pulmonary embolism or pulmonary hypertension can be serious and consult your PCP to eliminate these with the help of a cardiologist. For GERD you can take omeprazole empty stomach and avoid alcohol, smoking, spicy food.
There are many causes of dizziness, lightheadedness, passing out, blackouts etc. It is difficult to comment without examination.
s better to be safe than sorry with any kind of possible clotting. I had multiple pulmonary embolism in both my lungs last year. Horrible pain and a week in the hospital. As a consequence, I now have to take heparin twice daily to prevent the possibly of more clots forming. We are already at a high risk for clotting when we are pregnant, so the need for the scans were definitely higher than the risk for baby. PE kills people every day.
Well, if you have chest pain with cracking noise and phlegm, then the possibility of pulmonary embolism should be ruled out. This would need a CT scan. This can be dangerous and hence an immediate consultation with a doctor is must.
The other possibility is that it is due to acid reflux from the stomach. Take omeprazole empty stomach in the morning. Along with this take OTC antacid gel after all major meals. Eat your dinner early and then take a late night snack.
I had been diagnosed with pnuemonia and went home and for 2 hours sit in recliner....I got up and immediately felt pain in my right lower lung area....It was a pulmonary embolism and the kind of pain that I can't describe....plurisy was also diagnosed....I was put on blood thinners of course, and 2 rounds of anti-inflammatory ...but the pain has come back since I took the last of the anti-inflmmatory medication.....Is this a common thing or something more??
Have you been checked for a pulmonary embolism? My symptoms were pain in the left side of my chest (it sounds though like my pain was much worse than yours). It hurt me to inhale, cough, sneeze, laugh, etc. I was just diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism last week. They can do a blood test for clotting and a CT scan to confirm diagnosis.
Gosh, I wouldn't think so. You've reached back out to them? What is their response? https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pulmonary-embolism/symptoms-causes/syc-20354647 In times of covid, you'd also want to make sure the shortness of breath and coughing are not the virus. But pulmonary embolisms can be fatal. Reach out to your doctor immediately if you have not! Let me know what happens and how she is!!
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.
When I went to the internist she said the cardiologist looked at my EKG and it was fine, no need for further tests or anything. For the past few weeks I have been having unexplained left shoulder pain, stomach pain and have been a little dizzy. I'm also anemic. I will have some mild chest pains that only last for a second or two every once in a while. I'm really starting to freak out about this shoulder pain, it comes and goes and I didn't pull a muscle or injure it in any way.
