What Causes Multiple Clots In The Lungs?

Came out of the hospital a month ago with multiple clots in my lungs and one in the back of my left leg. Took shots of loveonx and on warafin. INR checks good between 2-3. The question I had was that every now and then I feel a mild discomfort above my heart area in my chest. When I take a deep breath I can feel the same discomfort in the same area. Is this caused by the clots? They told me I have some in my pulmenary artiries.

Hi. I can understand your concern.
Yes the cause for your chest pain is due to the clots. It will take time to settle. But do consult your doctor if it does not settle.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
