Thought it was Pneumonia....

Ca

I was 18 when all this happened.

Back in late Nov. early Dec. 2018 i felt sick, out of breath, light headed, coughing all the time, and i was constantly tired and losing energy.

I went to the doctor complaining of chest pains and she just gave me a inhaler, some medicine and said i have a virus. NO TESTS OR ANYTHING. Well i finished all my medicine and still used my inhaler, but the pain got worse. Before i knew it Dec. 24th was there, the day before Christmas.

By then i was in so much pain everyday i couldnt handle it anymore, i took my friend his Christmas present and i broke down crying begging to go to the hospital, so my mom called my step dad and told him she was taking me. We got there and they ran tests, done scans, gave me medicine to calm me down and ease some pain. We were waiting to be told i had pneumonia, but instead he came in and told me i had PE blood clots in both lungs.
