Blood clot in my lung

Hi all, please help!

I was sent to the hospital yesterday by the out of hours doctors. Long story short they suspect I have a blood clot on my lung

They are treating me with daily injections on heprin (sp?) I have to inject myself today
An I have to go back in for a scan on Tuesday

Problem is I am in absolute agony today, a lot worse than yesterday, I've taken 2 paracetomol and 1 ibuprofen and it's took the edge off slightly but i can't even stand up straight or breath without pain
I sneezed earlier and almost collapsed with the pain

I have to look after my 2 children tomorrow on my own and I really don't know how I will manage Confused

What can I take to take this pain away???

Glad your treatment appears to be working lolli. Good news about the Blood Levels too. Don't hesitate to go straight back though if you begin to feel how you did the other day again Flowers.
