I am 72 recently diagnosed with a blood clot in the pulmonary artery of my right lung. There’s no evidence of a DVT in my leg. I am on Eliquis right now. I’ve been told it is a relatively small segmented clot, but I am wondering from those of you who have been through this process did you suffer severe fatigue and shortness of breath throughout this recovery? I am on oxygen full-time and it’s kind of hard because I don’t look sick, but I can’t do a lot of things and I feel like people don’t understand. I also have pain that radiates up my neck and behind my ear when I cough it hurts like hell I read that pain can be referred to the vagus nerve. I’m just wondering if any of you can provide some insight thanks in advance.
