They are trying to rule it out for me. I had my third pulmonar embolism in August and it was the worst one, was effecting my heart and they don't know if its temporary or will go away. Had to do a stress test, which suprosingly I completed but they think I was having so much trouble because of what lupus has done to my body.

@A MyLupusTeam Member I was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension and restrictive lung disease before I found out I had Lupus. I didn't know it was from Lupus until after my diagnosis. I take hydrochlorothyazide, which is for BP and has diuretic to lessen swelling in my legs.
