I feel for you. I also have various blood clots on both lungs. I had two of my grand-sons at the time I suddenly was short of breath and had severe chest pains. I called 911 and they gave me oxygen. I felt better. When I got to the ER they did various tests and they were all negative. The ER doctor said I want to do a Cat Scan. I said ok and then the doctor came in and told me I had various blood clots on both lungs, some were big. I asked him about surgery and he said it was too risky. They admitted me to the hospital and put me on Heparin shots. I went home after 3 days and continued giving myself the heparin shots and was then put on warfarin (generic Comadin). Now I have a scheduled test for pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs). Keep me posted as to how you are doing. God bless and Merry Christmas!
