Did you by chance have covid vaccine before getting PMR? Certain vaccines have been linked to blood clots also. Good luck

Thanks for the question. No, I had PMR before my first Covid vaccine. The blood clots in my lungs cleared up within 60 days of going on the blood thinners. My hematologist has reduced the dosage of the blood thinners by half and seems confident that I won’t get any more blood clots, at least arterial blood clots. Thanks for the good wishes and best of luck to you too.
