Damn... sorry to hear that.

I had multiple pulmonary embolisms in Jan 2008. Watched the Giants beat the Pats from a hospital bed.
We've found out since that there's likely something on one side of my family causing it (like 5 of us had embolisms). Not exactly sure what it is, but some sort of blood protein thing. The pain was like a lightening bold in my ribcage. I'll remember that shit forever. It came and went, but it was frequent.

I went 4 days before it was diagnosed and got put on heparin (never had to go on oxygen). Then they transitioned me to coumadin, and unfortunately my doctor wants me to stay on it, maybe for good. Other than having to stay on the meds though, I had a much easier recovery than you. After 6 days in the hospital, I was feeling fine and back out on the streets.

Gotta take a breathing test every few years, and it always shows that my breathing is less than optimal, but it's nothing that I really notice, except that I can't hold my breath longer than maybe 75 seconds (it's a struggle after 60 seconds... pretty sure I could go a bit longer before). My embolism caused infarction... so there was some lung tissue death.

.

Continued best wishes to you too.
