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.

hi all- hope this finds you well...
my roommates boyfriend just brought this up to my attention...
he asked me if i had ever gotten then HPV vaccination (Gardasil)...i have; i had my second shot about 3 months before my PE. he had read a few articles on the shot and told his gf that he did not want her getting it...for these reasons. cardiac issues and blood clots. just wondering if there is any real correlation here and if any of the ladies who have had PE's had the HPV shot not too long before they had their PE?
just thought id throw that out there as a thought. google it, its all over the place. and remember, vaccinations are our choice, so think twice before you do anything...what hasnt been out for 10 yrs yet, no one truly knows the future problems, if any, it may cause.
stay well.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
