Yeah I don’t think that is unusual. I had some wheezing, a little cough and weird sensations on and off for a while. Part of it too is we tend to hyper focuse on every feeling in our lungs, our breathing etc so things also feel amplified. If it’s concerning though, call a nurse at your doctors office and they can try to get you in before your appointment if they think it’s serious.

Hi Lashaye.m
After reading your post i jumped up, at last someone else that has the same syptoms as me.
Mine also is when i am lying down ,its when i am exhaling i feel it the most.
After a visit to the doctors i have an appt with the hospital in a few weeks.
Did you manage to visit your doctor and i hope you are feeling better.
I did find it much better when you go to bed to put a few more pillows under me so it raises you up so you are not laying flat.

Hello wel I saw my hematologist & he said it could be fluid & that the clot is probably drains. He listened to my heart & breathing and different seem bothered he said I sounded fine . The feeling def comes and goes seems like it happens less now . & I’m feeling much better pain wise still a few aches here and there but much better thanks for asking & hope your doing fine as well .

I have the same thing! Had the rattling feeling in my lungs consistently for several weeks after coming home from the hospital with bilateral PE. While in the hospital I had mild pneumonia as well. So on my follow up appointments to the pulmonologist and hematologist I was convinced the pneumonia had returned. Both doctors said my lungs were clear and I was feeling the lung infarction.

The feeling eventually tapered off.

Now ten weeks into recovery I’m starting to feel it again when I take a deep breath in the my middle to lower back.
Has anyone else experienced return of symptoms? I was feeling much better....now I’m starting to feel fatigued and out of breath again.

Hi BDB6g

Yes I have had the same rattling in my lungs but never felt it in my back. I am approx. 14 weeks into recovery and all I can say is time will be the healer you will get bad days and good days, like you a was feeling better then boom back it was. Judging by the rest of the posts I have read this all seems to be part of the course, With me it is the nights I hate I find it painful to lie down without the pain returning and that rattle in the lungs so tend to try to sleep more elevated. If you are worried I would go back to your doctor and voice your concern as its better to be safe then sorry.
Hope it all clears soon for you and don't over do it with your excercises.

An update. Had a follow up ct scan and all clear. So return of some symptoms is just park of the recovery I guess.

Glad your scan shows everything is clear!
