Pulmonary Embolism - Overview

[@renvicjack628]

i lost the man that i love to this. he told me he had a scare of this last year and now it happened. my heart is forever broken

[@sarahchioma8495]

I survived this. I literally died. Till date,my lungs hurt when I breathe hard(especially when I yawn).I still wear a ted stockings and still on blood thinner. I blow balloons to help with my heart/chest. I don’t wish this on my enemy. It is scary and deadly. I am a walking miracle.

[@jonathankneel8637]

My friend lost his Mother recently to this. I am happy to know you overcame it. Apparently all the symptoms were there days prior; unfortunately it was overlooked.

[@sarahchioma8495]

@@jonathankneel8637 I am so sorry for the irreplaceable loss. Please accept my condolence on behalf of your friend.The symptoms can be subtle to be honest, and before you realize it, it is too late. I have plans to work on raising awareness about Pulmonary Embolism as a survivor.

[@erichay1640]

you're not really a walking miracle. stop being a baby you didn't survive nothing. doctors and nurses looked after you well.

[@ameyredekar8174]

Hello. My sisters husband is in icu because of this right now. We are scared.

[@sevendust510]

I had to drive myself to ER 340AM so painful. 29 years old. They're killing us.

[@ivysimmons216]

I was diagnosed with PE this past Sunday when I visited the ER. The doctor said I have multiple small clots in my lungs. She wanted to admit me but didn’t because there weren’t anymore available rooms. So she discharged me and told me to return ASAP if I started feeling bad again. The telltale signs I had were shortness of breath, lightheartedness, and feeling like I was going to pass out. I’m glad I didn’t ignore the signs because I probably would be dead. To anyone else dealing with this or has family/friends dealing with this, I pray a speedy recovery for all. To those who’ve lost loved ones to this, my heartfelt condolences to all of you ❤

[@puneetn8717]

How u survived please tell

[@davidmcnally4773]

I collapsed in the street 3 weeks ago was ambulance driven to hospital and quickly diagnosed with p e ,3 scans and 2 heart examination located blood clots on the lungs spent 4 day s in hospital given blood thinners still in pain before think im lucky to survive

[@jayjamael]

I have an unprovoked pulmonary embolism. Thank god they stopped in my lungs. For anybody that is going through this, stay strong

[@nonyabiness4023]

I finished chemo 4 months ago. I’ve since complained about my port hurting my chest, making it hard to breathe, etc. Coming back from a trip this weekend I hit a deer on the highway, was rushed to our ER 10 away from town, and they discovered 2 pulmonary embolism in my lungs. I guess that deer saved my life! Killed my car but saved my life! I was in ICU for the first day then moved to a regular room. Given heparin intravenously and now I’m home taking eliquis pills! Crazy

[@VincentMosley]

I'm literally dealing with this right now. I'm 31 and have never been admitted to a hospital before this in my life. I've never broken anything none of that. I wanted to comment because you forgot something extremely important. I developed this as a side effect of COVID-19. I think that needs to be known to ppl out there that is EXTREMELY more likely to happen AFTER you have gotten rid of COVID. I am now dealing with the pnuemonia from it was well as this at the same time. What a time to be alive.

[@mimivibes1172]

🙏🏽 I hope you get better

[@jaysonmendoza673]

Im confined right now same side effect of covid. And this is my second life after that critical day. Thank GOD. Bless all those who are fighting. Don’t give up you are not alone and you will be healed in JESUS name.

[@MexhomieXlll]

I also developed this. I got covid in august and also started bipap therapy in September for sleep apnea. So I dont know what caused it. It sucks i got confused and dizzy once

[@l333boa]

Same here, I'm 37 and ended up with pneumonia and extensive bilateral pulmonary embolism, I'm 5 weeks out of hospital and on rivaroxaban and bisoprolol indefinitely, feel like half the person I use to be but thankful I'm alive 🙏 God bless you all and hope your recovery goes well

[@sylviasmith6869]

My partner passed away with this in March of this year and has left me gutted and its so unreal that my man has gone forever with very few explanations regarding this awful medical condition .He had been in hospital for 13 days with a high white blood count which they could not get under control, he was sent home and two days later was feeling unwell after ringing 111 and waiting 3 hours for a ambulance unbeknown to me he had a blood clot in his leg but I never got any advice to look out for any warning signs and it travelled and he passed away within hours of being admitted to hospital leaving me in shock as we went doing errands the same day.Iwould advice anyone that has health concerns to just ring for a ambulance straight away as it definitely could save your life.

[@Levitevi]

Hello my sister is going through this now and got admitted to icu. We are all worried we dont know where it came from. Please if anyone survived this and is doing better now please share some positive hopeful stories 🙏🏼❤️

[@Moebechtold]

My girlfriend died suddenly from this last year. She was only 48. We don't think she knew she had it. 😢

[@bhavnasewram8272]

Did you really draw this, you are so talented

[@TheAceLewis]

I have been experiencing “shocks” through my chest since I was 11 years old. It feels like an electrical shock that passes from the left side to my right side. I come from an extremely poor family and so I have never seen a doctor about it. One friend says “it’s a pulmonary embolism.” Another friend becomes a respiratory therapist and tells me “it’s not a pulmonary embolism, if you’ve been experiencing that since you were a child you should be dead. There’s no surviving a pulmonary embolism.” And then I get other opinions telling me “yes you can survive a pulmonary embolism” so either I’m just a fucking drama queen who has zero fucking clue how biology works, or I’m a fucking scientific experiment waiting to be sent in for a biopsy.

My son has pneumonia and a blood clot in each lung, he is a soldier and very fit and healthy. So does mean it’s hereditary?

[@tiffanyashford4769]

Probably… That’s where I’m thinking my PE came from.. It’s a gene you could be tested for if blood clots run in your family

[@Msnaima85]

It’s not hereditary….but some factors such as environmental factors or social factors can be a comorbid .
