A member asked:
Could my wheezing be from a pulmonary embolism. help?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not likely: Pulmonary embolism causes chest pain, shortness of breath from loss of oxygen and a feeling of "impending doom". It usually comes on suddenly and is not gradual. Wheeezing is more likely due to asthma, bronchitis, allergies, etc.
