Pulmonary embolism?

Laura • 4 miscarriages, one living child, pregnant again.

Hi ladies,

I have been experiencing a pain in my chest that is like a tennis ball in my lower right lung. It never truly goes away and it is worse when laying down (specifically on my sides). I cannot truly take a deep breath. I occasionally experience shortness of breath and dizziness. I am 5 weeks 3 days pregnant and on progesterone supplements due to recurrent miscarriages.

I have PTSD from a d&c and have no desire to go to a hospital but will go if necessary. My question is for those of you whole had PE did you just have pain? I thought maybe it was heartburn initially (this is day 6) but it never moves. I really don't want to go to a hospital ...

Edit I went to the ER last night. The dt said because all my vitals were normal he was not concerned for PE and thinks it is muscular skeletal. He said to take tylonal and take it easy.
