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 was in car wreck 2 weeks ago a fender bender hit from behind but I did hit my head on back of seat hard so of course off to ER to make sure no bleeds. They scanned me head to toe.
Today I was 4 feet from boat dock and instead of putting it in neutral I hit full throttle and hit boat dock hard and my head went forward and back with pretty good force. My speed never got up there it was just like that of a bumper car but I did not have anything behind my head to stop the motion.
I do have dull back and neck pain but nothing major. No headache but I keep reading that if you are on blood thinners you can get subdural hematoma by whiplash. I have anxiety disorder so my PE 3 years ago puts my brain on over drive. I don't want to go to the ER for every little thing.
Can you please tell me I don't he to be surrounded in bubble wrap for the rest of my life.

Nationalday.com proclaims September 28th as Self Aware Day. I took a few snaps of various core values lists and tried to pick my top five core values (kinda hard to only pick 5). But here are my top picks. Feel free to list a few of yours too:GodLovePeaceStability Compassion

Now that I am not talking to my whatever best friend, I realized that her life is full of drama. I had grown tired of hearing her stories about her boyfriend many months ago. 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...

I don't think we have to live in bubble wrap. We just have to be more aware than most people.
Over time, you'll start to get a better feel for what might be a real problem and what isn't. Head stuff, from my perspective, is definitely worth keeping an eye on. If the pain gets worse or you have more symptoms, I'd get checked out ... and I'd say the same thing even if you weren't on thinners.
We do have to be aware and maybe a little more cautious, but there's no reason to live in bubble wrap, from my perspective.
