A member asked:
Went to the er again, they said i'm too young to have blood clots. they said i'm low potassium and that chest pain could be muscle spasm?

The ER is wrong if: If the clinical picture is compatible with a pe then a ct with contrast needs to be done. If your symptoms are not compatible, the er is correct.
