  I was sick back in august with what I thought was just broncitis. They did an ekg because I was having chest pain and it came back fine so I was put on antibiotics (since chest pain is pretty common with broncitis). Well when the chest pain didnt go away I was really short of breath I called my doctor I went back in and they ordered a CT scan to make sure it wasnt a PE or pnemonia. Well it wound up being a PE so my doctor told me to go to the er. I only stayed for three days. they didnt find a DVT and I was told to take it easy. (Now granate I begged for them to let me go home asap I hate hospitals so the doctor told me I had to stay a minimum of 3 days but if I could learn to give myself my shots then I could go home!!! I was back in the hospital 3 days later with excrutiating pain in my legs. They admitted me to the hospital for 3 days again for observation... This time I was in so much pain I didnt care!! They did give me strong pain killers! I slept the whole three days!! They found nothing and my doc contacted fellow doctors that had delt with coumadin a lot and they said that muscle pain is a very very rare side effect. I also threw up everything I ate all I could keep down was crackers... It was the most miserable month!! I lost 20lbs! I had to change my insurance (that took a month) so I had to just suffer until I could change to lovenox, which I did in Oct 1st and I was on it until a month ago. I am now off of everything and feeling better week by week! but like you I feel lucky that it wasnt worse. They think mine was cause by birth control. That was my only risk factor.

  hello. also there is a support group for P.E. I also have no genetic factors and got a PE. So I dont know how common it is but it happens. Guess we are just the unlucky ones. but at the same time lucky that it wasnt worse lol. good luck! When were you diagnosed?
