Stress and Pulmonary Embolism (PE's) Posted: 01-16-08 13:20pm


I have had PE's blood clots on the lungs but don't fall into any of the likely causes, except I had been under stress. Do anyone know if PE's and Stress are linked? Do anyone know of any studies into stress and PE's. Could stress have caused my PE's?

Hey fireman, my sister-in-law came down with PE, 1000's of them and we almost lost her, it turns out that it was a inheritated disease, but if caught early can be treated. so talk to your doctor about PE's that could be hereditary, they can check with a specific blood test.. I don't know what it is, but my husband was tested and he is fine. If u notice that your face is blue, get to the er, even if its your lips. She noticed that her lips were blue, approxamatley 5 days after her husband gave her a massage with a heavy duty massager and it nocked 100's of them loose, we almost lost her. Now she is on Oxygen for the rest of her life.. She is very obese and not active alot and had a very stressfull job, so i think all those combinations made things worse.. good luck ww
