about pulmonary embolism

Can a person be walking around with a PE and not know it?  Would they be able to cough it up?  I know that sounds strange, but I have a rattling in my chest that I can't expectorate.  Sorry to be so graphic. 


Thank you, anyone, for answering.

Pulmonary embolism and work...

Just recently got out of the hospital with PE but need to go back to work right away.  On the usual meds that come with this condition and feeling lightheaded.  Anyone here been through same thing and how soon did you return to work as an MT?  I would prefer you e-mail me privately.  If this is too personal for you.  I understand.  I tend to be more candid than most.  Also would prefer to talk to someone who has been through it.


Thank you so much.


It's called AMNIOTIC FLUID EMBOLISM.

I know a little about pulmonary.  I think you should acquaint yourself with blood gas values and ventilatory settings, it is all fascinating after that.  Feel free to E me if you need help.
I have a pulmonary doc who
has the most terrible cough I have ever heard. It's chronic, cause he's had it since I started typing him however long ago. Everytime he coughs the speech recognition computer puts "referring physician". So I have to go and edit out all his coughs from the report. Kinda makes you wonder why he doesn't treat his own cough.
Thanks! I have the cardiology/pulmonary sm
book and that covers everything mostly I need but sometimes its easier to just get it off the internet.
