Has anyone had multiple blood clots in their lungs?

You are lucky!!!

Over 4 years! The blood clots have turned into scar tissue at the opening ofmy right lung! I haven't been able to breathe for over 4 years! $ years ago, was misdionosed and after not being able to breathe, I took it it on my own to quit going to my Pulmonologist and went to OU Medical Center in OKC where they found the scar tissue! I am having a Ballon Angiogram done on July 31st in Dallas Hospital where a catherter will go into my groin, then up thru my heart to the opening of right lung where the surgeon will try to get as much scar tissue out as he can! It is a possibility that I will have to repeat this procedure 2or 3 times?? And ifthe surgeon can't get thescar tissue out, he will split my chest open and go in and get the scar tissue! The heck of it all, I live 600 miles round trip to Dallas!

I had one PE. Took Elliquis for a while. Then x-ray showed it was gone, thank God!

I coughed up blood . CT scan showed one in each lung. I was admitted and I got better by the hour after ;two days was released. I later found out I have a gene mutation that gives me a propensity for blood clots. I had several in my arm years earlier. I’ve been clot free now for about 10 years. They are dangerous and extremely painful. Don’t wait. At first sugn, Go to emergency

I have many blood clots in my lungs,they say they don't no were they came from I don't have clots in my legs or any were else, they have put me on eliquis two time a day.but I read this dose not clear blood clots it only stop them from getting bigger and stop new clots so what happens to the clots I have in my lungs now can they kill me or what going on

Doctors will say that Eliquis (apixaban) "degrades" the clot. It doesn't remove it or destroy it. It degrades it. In a simple sense it stops the progression of the clot and then waits for the body's own defense systems to do the degrading. I have been told that this "degrading" can take some time - possibly months. I developed clots when I was in the hospital last year. Not big ones, but they were doing some damage. I was put on apixaban immediately and I am still on it, although at a very low dose. The doc who manages the clot said he wants me to stay on apix for at least another year even thought there are no signs of the clot now. This is purely a preventive measure.

I had covid 19 that started dec 16 ,5 days later I had pneumonia,16 days later I had to have blood clot so large that they had to be removed 8 of them the doctor said my body would take care of the rest, so now the doctor said I could return to work 4 1\2 weeks later ,I tried to talk to the doctor but he really did not won't to talk he just thought I was trying to get SSD and did not care what I had to say or even ask how I was has any one had a doctor like that
