I'm gonna live! :)

Hi all. Just a quick update to let you know I saw the pulmonologist last week and it looks like I'm going to be just fine. I will continue on the blood thinners for the 3 months duration (thru August) since I am at at a higher risk of getting another one the first 3 months after getting my first clot. Standard stuff. The clot should already be cleared up (most likely) now. The dr. also described my difficulty breathing as "normal" for lack of a better word. Some people have huge blood clots and no symptoms and find out other ways I guess. And some people like me have more severe symptoms with a very tiny clot. So, I will be back to see my PCP in a month and probably the following month for f/u's and that should be it. I'm just more aware of other symptoms, etc. now.

Thanks again to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. Love to you all.
