I was litteraly just released from hospital from a massive pulmonary embolism. Doctors had to shock me they were sure I'm not going to make it. By the grace of God I survived. I felt exactly the same.

Thanks for describing the pain. I never knew how my brother felt before he passed away. He texted me complaining that he was short of breath and asked me to help him call the ambulance. A few hours later he was unconscious and a day later he passed away. He was 40 years old.

Why you now take him to hospital ?

My father recently died from a huge blood clot. He ignored the signs when we wanted to take him to the hospital. He was to prideful to admit that he was having health issues and in the end it killed him. Please spread awareness.

I’ve been dealing with worsening breathing problems for months. Finally it escalated to the point where I was certain I was suffocating. Honestly I begged God to take me quickly and put me out of my misery. Ended up in the ER where I learned I had a pulmonary embolism. I’m still hospitalized at this moment. It’s been a rough ride.

I finished chemo 4 months ago and told my oncologist and regular doctor I thought the port catheter was sticking my heart. It was causing chest pains, I couldn’t breathe, heart was beating too fast or too slow or would temporarily stop. They blew me off thinking I just wanted the port out. I was on the highway one night with a friend and 10 minutes away from home a deer just stood on the road in front of my car and I hit her. Huge doe. I was taken to the hospital and still complaining that the port was hurting my heart. They took a CT scan and X-rays and told me I had 2 blood clots in my lung. It wasn’t the port, like he said, I was dying and didn’t know it. That deer saved my life! Killed my car but saved my life! Sad thing, I did ask for help. My medical team blew me off

Oh my. Thank you so much for sharing. I have been accused of faking illness and lost both my kids, husband, in laws and even dad because they thought I was a hypochondriac or chose to be a jerk. I started to believe I was crazy and probably was a pos. I had "more than we can count" in my lungs twice. The doctor told me a 3rd probably kill me.

I asked my physician why does every adult no matter what size take the same amount of Eliquis and he just said that’s the way it is. I don’t understand it. I also asked how do you know if it’s working and he said if you don’t get any clots then you know it’s working. That to me sounded kind of dumb. I’m thinking isn’t there a test they could do like the people that are on Coumadin and he said no Coumadin is different those people get their blood tested every week or two. Anyway I’m always scared somethings going to happen again but if I’m taking the blood thinners I’m doing the right thing. I hope you have a good evening.

@@TLovetoDance012 Goodness. I hope you know there's no shame in getting another opinion. I wouldn't be comfortable with those kind of answers, either. Not that he was rude, it's just with these types of things, you know, the illnesses you can't see or predict. Doctors forget, I think, that while they might not be worried because they see so much, most patients don't know much and need reassurance. I don't know if it's wise to compare but you could ask a doctor if you should feel a noticeable difference like I do. He/she may not want you to experiment between taking it one day and not the next. Maybe you need a higher dose if he/she agrees it should give you a better overall feeling. Maybe I'm just lucky. We think it was from smoking while on a hormone treatments. Has anyone done a DNA check on you for a blood disorder? If not, you really, really need that done. ALSO, I believer a D-dimer test is the best simplest test to see if the meds are doing their job. But, I don't know for sure. It may only be able to detect clots are present. ALSO.....don't let me worry you but I did a lot of reading and it seems to be common for people to be diagnosed with cancer somewhere in the body within 6 months after getting clots. But, of course, that was on the Internet and it has a habit of scaring people. :) Thank you...... I think it was an in-law kinda thing an They don't particularly like me. LOL If you want, keep me posted on how you're doing.

@@Jenny-ZZR Hi Jenny. I read your nice post. Yes I could always get a second opinion. When I got the blood clots and was in the hospital every doctor who came to see me asked me about cancer screenings. They asked if I had got the mammogram G.I. testing etc. and I told them I had plus female tests. I read all the reports there were no signs of cancer. They did tell me that sometimes people with cancer get blood clots and that’s why they were asking me. Of course they asked the usual questions..have I taken any long flights, long drives, car accidents, did I have a fall, etc. I told them no to everything except I had a minor fall down six stairs and bumped the right side of my lower leg. I did not have a bruise and I got up and brushed it off. Somehow I wonder if that caused all of this but they wrote it off. I’m also asthmatic and during last fall season had a terrible flare that ultimately sent me to the ER because the steroids weren’t working and they always work. They did the D dimer, pulmonary perfusion scan, CT and then I was diagnosed. They had me on injectable blood thinners in the hospital but then released me on Eliquis. That was in November. I recently had a D dimer about three weeks ago which was normal. I was relieved. I would like to get one of those at least every six months and I will talk to my doctor about it. When my mom had heart surgery she was on Coumadin. This was over 20 years ago and she had to go weekly for a test and that it was every two weeks but she had to be so careful about eating green vegetables especially since she loves salad because it would mess up her numbers. At least people that take newer blood thinners don’t have to worry about that. I don’t remember how long it was that you said this happened to you.. has your family come around and are more understanding? My children are in the medical field and we have a doctor in the family so of course I got opinions and information flying at me as soon as the diagnosis hit. I was especially told to get checked out by the cardiologist because the clots were so many when they look like that they usually come from the heart from a backed up heart valve. I am very grateful it wasn’t that. Well I hope you’re doing well. It’s nice to have someone to chat with because it’s a little depressing not having the energy I had before. It’s taken me a long time to get where I am from November to May now I am in rehab on the treadmill, a sit down elliptical etc. and I’m hoping that will work. Just want to be able to take a walk without feeling so out of breath I have to sit down somewhere.

I had pulmonary embolisms after I birthed my son. It was the most painful thing I've ever experienced. I was in ICU for a week and had to take blood thinners for months after that.

He is exactly correct. I suffered from a bi lateral PE back in 2018 and it literally felt like I was suffocating to death. The whole snake constricting analogy is spot on.

@SgtWill that actually was how I was first introduced to clots. DVT in the right leg in 2019. Then in Auguat of 2023, while 5 months pregnant, I had a 12 day hospital stay for Bilateral DVTs in both legs... for me the legs came first and progressed to the lungs. It's heavily hereditary for me, that's why I to deal with it I was the youngest to get clots in my family at 25, and the first person to have them travel to the lung and survive.. they really are no joke

I am 35 years old and I just found out yesterday that I have blood clots in my lungs, my world came crashing down. I finally found out why I work out and feel like a 80 year old man. I'm still shook and I hope to God these blood thinners work for me

Having any blood clot is awful but having a big pulmonary embolism, you think your dying and are very close to death. I thought I was having a heart attack, and prayed so hard to survive before going into a long hospital stay, after I had just left the hospital recovering from a femoral clot that unknown to anyone had broken away and travelled to my lungs! I never want to go through that trauma again..and thank god that miracles do happen. This occurred in my mid thirties, my 1st clot in my ankle occurred at 29. But once a clot has formed in a limb, its already damaged it, and has caused damages in my body...cause 'The contraceptive birth control pill' ...amazing how one pill can cause so much damage. Thank you for sharing your life story! My life changed totally because of D.V.Ts.

A PE is basically a heart attack once it ruptures

Haven't had a PE but i have had two heart attacks. The first one, i was having the heart attack for three days. First hospital released me with a pulled muscle. If they had just taken the time to do blood work they'd have caught it. Right now I'm having some side pain but after watching this i feel okay about it. I know so the symptoms but i NEEDED to hear them described. How they felt. Some analogies. Thank you for this video. Put my mind at ease.

Had a pulmonary embolism on the 14th of April 2024. Came extremely sudden. Felt as though a second heart was beating in the side of my throat. Felt as though an elephant was sitting on chest. Couldn't breath. Had no stength. Couldn't even talk without getting weak and sortness of breath. Was put on oxygen and did a ct and x rays in hospital. They gave me a shot that was equal to 6000 disprins in SA. Went to ICU. Was on strict bed rest, not allowed to move for 24 hours otherwise I could bleed out. Worst few days of my life.

I have blood cloths in my lungs i was admitted in the hospital im out from August but i still cant breathe im on eliquis blood thinners i have asthma and also sleep apnea and hernia ambulance came back for me twice after but the hospital say they cant see y i cant breathe properly i almost fainted today on my way to pick my son from school when i walk i have to stop all the time to catch air this is uncomfortable for me

Did they try giving you a thrombolytic? I was put on Activase in the ICU and my blood clot seemed to dissolve. I was on room air after the drug. I know it is a dangerous drug that can cause bleeding in the brain. I had a massive PE a month ago. I'm now on Eliquis. I hope you get better and not have any further clotting issues.

I have blood clots in my lungs it's hard for me to breathe sometimes I get chest pains and I'm really scared

I had a pulmonary embolism at 27 in both lungs by far the worst pain I've ever felt and didn't realise until afterwards how close I was to death I've been diagnosed with factor V leiden and have been on anticoagulants for the last 5 years!

I currently have a blood clot. With everything going on in my life I think I’m ok if I pass.

Something is wrong here. 3 years with blood clots?? I have a large one in my lung now (and smaller ones in both lungs. And, like you, heart involvement. When I got out of the hospital last Monday, the doctors said they would give me 3 months on Warfarin along with 5 days on a more heavy-duty drug. If I didn't have significant improvement, I would need heart surgery. Docs may have done you a disservice?? But best of luck and a long life to you.

I found out that I had PE back in February of 2021 till this day I still have the blood clots them along because I'm so scared to have the surgery what this man described is exactly what I had when I found out I was in the ICU for a couple days I was in the hospital for 2 weeks doctors was trying to figure out what what the plan and they said if I did not come that day the next day I would have died and that next day was my wedding anniversary so if it wasn't for my husband I would not have been here because I'm very stubborn I'm going to the hospital now I'm just trying to find encouragement just trying to do the surgery because it is so scary of what the are telling me what they're going to do but I need this because what this man was describing on how he had to go places early that's exactly what I have to do

i am a man i did talk about my shortness of breath and my doctors missed it altogether until i passed out because i could not breathe i nearly died from it: they ignore old men

I'm 29 year old man I just found out I got blood clots in my lungs. I woke up and could only take 1/3 of a breath I'm still really confused on what to do next I can't drive I can't work.
