A member asked:

Ddimer of 7.06, neg ct. been having chest pain, short of breath, & headache w/neck pain. been few days, thoughts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Elevated d dimer: Did they check your legs for clots? Other causes of elevated d dimer are infection, inflammatory causes (like acute arthritis and injury) and neoplastic (cancers).
