Marlene,

I'm not a doctor, but sounds similar to something I had a few years back.  Have they checked for blood clots in the lungs?  You said he is prone to clots, he should be taking coumadin or some type of blood thinners during this revovery period.  I was coughing from any kind of activity and short of breath.  Thoughts and prayers are with you both!

Yes, that's what they are looking for.  The xrays didn't show any so that's why they wanted to do the VQ scan.  Guess it shows more detail.  I planned to be back at the hospital early this morning but Randy called and said wait till 9 or 10.  Also, that he hadn't slept at all last night and he was going to try to sleep now since they just gave him a shot of something??

Marlene,
Blood clots in the lungs don't show up in Xrays, so that's not a surprise.  The VQ (which I assume is like a CT scan) will pick them up if they are there, same thing happened with me.  Hang in there, we're all with you.

Randy's home again!  They did a CT scan and no clots in his lungs.  He was having pleuritic chest pain.  Did not have pneumonia but possible early stage of it.  Started him on antibiotics plus increased his coumadin & lovenox temporarily because the coumadin level had gotten low.  He's resting now and still very weak.  I'm sure it won't be long before he's back posting on the site.  Thanks again for all your prayers.
