A member asked:
What are some signs of a blood clot in your lungs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many....: shortness of breath, rapid heart rate, rapid breathing, chest pain with breathing, possibly cough and low grade fever, wheezing, and even cough with blood in sputum. The question here is do you have risk factors for this (long travel, blood clot history, autoimmune conditions, etc.)? If you suspect a blood clot in your lungs, you should be in the ER getting tested and treated.

I have been to ER, EKG was normal, blood work was good. No signs of damage to heart or blood clots. I still am having waves of chest heaviness, burning, and more recently having a hard time catching my breath after a flight of stairs. What is this??
