Symptom narrative

On 10/3/2025, one week after getting the Covid shot, I had intense pain in my right lung when sleeping. Went to the Emergency Room at (withheld name) University Hospital in (withheld city, state). Was quickly diagnosed as being in AFib with a blood clot in both the right and left lung. After numerous tests and drug treatments in the ER, I was admitted to the hospital where I remained until being released on 10/5/2025. I have had appointments with a primary care doctor and hematologist since, with future appointments with these doctors and a cardiologist. I have never previously been diagnosed with AFib or blood clots.
