A doctor has provided 1 answer

Breathing: Good that you were checked, but any blood test can give a false negative. Nothing is 100%. However, you had other tests that confirmed the lack of PE yesterday. Could your problem be asthma? Could it be costochondritis or pleuritis? Since your symptoms have worsened, you deserve further evaluation.
