“For the two years we were together, he was my closest confidante, and my best friend. Now I can’t look at Bear without knowing I’ll never see his face again.

What is Pulmonary Embolism?
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition where a blood clot blocks one or more arteries in the lungs, impeding blood flow. Common symptoms include shortness of breath, chest pain, rapid heartbeat, and coughing, which may be accompanied by blood. Immediate medical attention is crucial for managing this condition.
The primary cause of a pulmonary embolism is usually a blood clot that originates in the deep veins of the legs, a condition known as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). These clots can travel to the lungs and block blood flow.
Preventative measures for pulmonary embolism focus on reducing the risk of blood clots. These include maintaining adequate hydration, avoiding tobacco, engaging in regular physical activity, and managing body weight through a healthy diet and lifestyle. It's also important to avoid prolonged periods of immobility, such as during long flights or bed rest, which can increase the risk of DVT.
Prompt medical treatment is essential to dissolve the blood clot and reduce the risk of complications, including death.
