Checked for afib?: Often pulmonary embolism and atrial fibrillation (or SVT - supraventricular tachycardias) occur together. At your age, a PE (even if treated) can lead to changes in the heart or its rhythm. A cardiologist, your primary doctor, or a HealthTap Prime doctor can set you up for an EKG (1st step) and then a Holter / event monitor if symptoms continue. Sounds like you're aware of a problem, so best wishe
