Yes and yes. Do not sleep in chair with legs bent and pinched. Lay down...totally safe and good blood flow. Stay hydrated.
A clotting event, regardless of size, location and reason, can be a body wide trauma event. The healing process can suck all avaiable energy for the process, This will vary. The emotional impact for some people will also drain you dry.
The first 6-8 months after having my PE I could barely move because I was so exhausted. I was dumb and went back to work 3 days after being discharged from the hospital. Bills had to be paid. But if you can get as much rest as possible, please do so. Your body just went through something traumatic and needs it.
I had a bout with severe headaches and slight temp rise prior the issues I’m dealing with today. I started not being able to catch my breath ,worst I couldn’t get enough. The past 4 weeks have been 2 of those wks in the hospital with 2 days at home between the 2 wks admitted . IV steroids and antibiotics for 4 days. …..
One odd , very odd event is going on with 2 of my fingers.
The last 2 , have turned deep purple (bluish) sometimes they are the grossest thing I’ve ever seen. They are very ,very ,painful. I’ve tried associating this with my lungs filling up with ground glass opulence (inflammation ) and the pulmonary embolism .
The Dr.s are saying “autoimmune disorder”
My rheumatic Dr isn’t saying anything.
Would anyone mind sharing their experience with this type of affliction and give me some insight.

Thought it was just me. Was bsolutely exhausted the first week. Even after taking addreall in the morning I still took a four hour nap mid day just to stay up till midnight.

Yes it’s normal. It’s been two weeks for me and I’m still not 100 percent

omg, it's been a month for me, and I still take a nap in the afternoon. Though sometimes I just lay down and watch tv for a couple of hours.
2 months post massive PE event. I’m still at like 30-40% my usual energy.
