Pulmonary Embolism Support Group
By far the most common form of pulmonary embolism is a thromboembolism, which occurs when a blood clot, generally a venous thrombus, becomes dislodged from its site of formation and embolizes to the arterial blood supply of one of the lungs. Symptoms may include difficulty breathing, pain during breathing, and more rarely circulatory instability and death.

I hit the top of my head really bad and saw stars aside from knot and soreness I am ok just worried because of Coumadin I run low 2.0. I don't have a headache just sore.

My doctor, knowing I'm a klutz, told me if I ever hit my head more than a mild bump, that I was to call her (unsaid was the part that she would weigh my description of the accident and my symptoms and decide what I should do).

I'm a bit of a worrywart, I tend to be overly cautious. if it was me I'd be seeking a medical opinion. Good luck.

She basically had been monopolizing conversations for that long too. She pretty much stopped asking me questions about me. I passed her in front of her classroom the other day and didn't even look at her. I am...
