Death by Acronym

Acronyms are extremely dangerous.

On Christmas Eve I had a DVT that caused a PE that nearly killed me. I’m fine now and recovering.

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) form in your extremities and sometimes throw off pieces of clot that travel to your lungs causing a Pulmonary Embolism (PE). They can kill you or in my case cause massive pain and then let you live. Kudos to Dr Douglas Dang and the Banner Health ER team who treated me.
