Pulmonary embolism

Hey just rejoiced. Here's my story, always been fairly fit and healthy. 4 and a half years ago at 38 weeks pregnant I suffered a dvt and pe that nearly killed me. Spent a long time getting out of breath just climbing the stairs, eventually got really fit and increased my lung capacity etc. Don't know if there are any others in my boat but hi any way I'm Charlie.

    I’m actually sitting right now waiting to get a VQ scan to rule out PE as I do have DVTs. My o2 sats stay around 87-91.When this started I required 18 leters of O2 on fast flow O2 and they were talking about putting me on a vent.Crazy,went because I noticed I was feeling SOB.Doing Tai Chi for beginners and working toward a Keto diet
