Hi,
How is your heart rate, is it fast? Are you short of breath upon any exertion? Does the chest pain get worse with movement especially postional changes? Also, if your intuition is tellling you that something is just not right, be assertive and call your doctor..that is his job..he should be concerned about you.. Let me know how you are? Elise

my heart rate is \"normal\" it runs a little high sometimes. I havent felt well enough to exert much. I did climb 2 flights of stairs and was SOB but that is normal for me. I am always SOB it is the more chest pain that concerns me. I know about calling him but then I will have to admit to him what i did (saturdays journal). I know it was stupid now but I hate soooooo bad not being normal and I was out with friends and I didnt think it would hurt anything!

Hi, I understand. If the chest pain is worse than you have experienced or similiar to when you had the PE, please get medical attention. My hematologist told me this a while back since I asked him when do I seek medical attention if I had chest pain.
I am concerned about you..please keep in touch.
Elise.
