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.

Oh man... the one that would do the least amount of psychological damage and emotional trauma would be a blood clot!

Ew. I'm just trying to figure out why the doctora thought it best to take it home after they extracted it. I would imagine she'd already has quite enough of it!

I'll take the leech-more easily removed than the clot!

We all have 24 hours in a day. How we spend these hours is important. Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do. Gonna have to work on that.Your turn. Tell me another truth.
