    Good Heavens! Thank goodness you got help in a timely fashion and are still among us to enjoy life. And I am sure you will enjoy it more now, after a scare like that.

    Thank you for the advice. We have taken care of others and forget to take care of ourselves. Glad you are OK.

    I had the same thing in my lungs and legs 6 years ago. I'm still on blood thinners and go to the dr. every 3 months. Each time I tell him I'm short of breath after walking a short distance or any exertion so went for more testing. Nothing wrong, but it's probably due to being overweight now. I'm working on losing the excess and have a long way to go.

    Hope you are doing better every day....

    Yesterday my DH went to the ER with similar symptoms. Went through all kinds of test and said he has a blood clot on his lung. That is all I know right now. He's still in the hospital and I will find out more when I visit this afternoon. He's 64 and we decided it's not easy getting old. It's not for wimps.
