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 have officially taken the last of my 6 month regime of Xarelto. I go in a week from tomorrow to get my blood drawn for genetic testing then see my Pulmonologist on the 29 th for the results. I want to thank everyone for the advice and well wishes I have received. I will update after the results.
Thank you,

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.
