IVE GOT ONE IN MY LEG RIGHT NOW. ITS THE 8TH ONE SO FAR IN THE SAME PLACE IN MY LEG IN 2019 I TOOK SOME HORNY GOAT WEED NOT A GOOD IDEA IT OPENED UP MY VAINS SO WELL THAT 2 CLOTS HIT BOTH LUNGS I HAD TROUBLE BREATHING. THE LEG CLOTS IN MY LEG THAT WAS SMASHED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. IM ON BLOOD THINNERS FOR LIFE
According to the koran we were all created from a blood clot [congealed blood]. Chapter 96 of the koran is titled "The Blood Clot". I'd dare say that the science of the koran is lacking. 😁
Idk if y’all will even see this. Hear about the cancer study 100% cured the other day? Small study, 14 people, for rectal cancer. But they all beat it with this. Whatever it was…
I came here for period comments and was not disappointed. P.S. thank you to everyone (including those who kindly donate their bodies post-mortem) who has a part in making this channel and these videos possible. This is such a great and invaluable learning resource for so many.
I have had 2 episodes of pulmonary emboli's, and am now on blood thinners for the rest of my life!!!! I feel very blessed to be alive!!! Scary stuff!!!!
I'm a science teacher and I always find you videos very informative. Tomorrow, I'm having a knee replacement and they have talked my ears off about clot prevention. You just convinced me that I need to pay attention and take it seriously! Thanks!
Currently going through class to be licensed as an EMT. I have watched several of your videos and they help me to remember information that is needed for my exams! I finish in two weeks and I am holding an A in class so far! Thank you for the informative videos!
I’ve always had very painful period pains growing up and sometimes would go for months without getting on my periods and when I finally did I would feel like I am giving birth after pushing out a clot out of my vagina. This year January I had the worst experience, I pushed out two huge blood clots which were the size of my hands. I couldn’t walk or anything, all I did was vomit but after pushing the last clot it was as if I never had pain on my abdomen and my period pains ever since have been mild. I hate blood clots!😭💔
I had the same problem when I was younger I had terrible periods and ya blood clots!!! but I grew out of it but my Dr. Did prescribe birth control once I was on birth control I had less problems with my periods
Please go and check this with a gynecologist/OB. I had the same issue for years and when I went to the doctor 3 yrs ago it turned out to be hormonal imbalance and endometriosis. Currently taking birth control to help it.
I have had several issues with blood clots during pregnancy, with DVT and PE. I had to take those painful shots in the tummy while carrying a person. I don't think I will ever forget that phase of my life... Thanks for helping us to understand how they form and how to prevent them.
Man, I love your channel, I don't enjoy see dead bodys and stuff, but you bring it like a real science and its completely different way to see human body inside. You bring so much knowledge and health advices, its great. God bless you.
My husband had a PE in his lung 32 years ago. He immediately stopped smoking. We were good at exercise & revamped our diet. This has video has helped me so much to understand. He had an uncle die of a PE. Thank you!
May you tell him, I, a random guy on the internet applaud him for doing that. Just going to the gym is hard to regularly do, I can't imagine what it takes to quit smoking and actually losing weight to not be overweight... I've never had to go through that kind of thing.

Extremely interesting video. My dad has suffered from DVTs for 60 years and has been hospitalized several times for pulmonary embolisms. He has had his veins stripped because the valves do not close properly. Thank goodness for blood thinners.
I'm a victim of DVT and had the first one in 2016. In 2021 it struck again twice. The pain is unexplainable!!! My left leg got swollen ever since the first attack
Thank you, thank you!!!! I was diagnosed with DVT back in 2006. I had a blood clot that extended from my right elbow up into my collar bone. I was immediately hospitalized and put on blood thinners. After 6 months of treatment, the clot dissolved and I was taken off the medication. It was the scariest situation, but thank you Lord for healing. I haven't had one since! 🙌
I consider myself to be very lucky. In 02 or 03 I had pain behind my knee. I had an ultrasound on a Wednesday, on Thursday I was told that it was a Baker's Cyst. Fast forward to the following Monday, I was sitting at at my desk at work, and all of a sudden I got this sharp stabbing pain in my chest when I inhaled. I was short of breath. I could only inhale very shallow breaths. A co-worker drove me to the ER, I thought that was gas pains and wanted to leave. The hospital made me stay. My entire family showed up at the hospital. I tried again to leave, thinking it was gas pains. I ended up having 2 PE's, and that Baker's Cyst was a large DVT. I was getting Heparin through an IV, and Coumadin orally. I was in the hospital for a week. I didn't realize the danger that I was in until months later when I actually read up on Pulmonary Embolisms. I used to be afraid of needles, but after having blood drawn on the hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, etc., then going daily before work...weekly, bi-weekly....Needles don't scare me anymore. I was prescribed Warfarin, and was forbidden from using a razor for shaving. I was putting out Rat Poison in my garage and was reading the ingredient list. Warfarin was the main ingredient. Sorry for the long post, just my story. I have a MI (heart attack) story too, but that's for another day. I know that I am one of the luckiest people on earth. Folks, live every day as if it were your last. I speak from experience.
I am currently at that stage of what my PCP (who no longer works at this place as of a week ago with just a letter sent out a warning of 2 wks before it happened) says maybe backer cyst, but I have pain and some bulging behind both knees and its not like a cyst at all so i keep putting off having it ultrasounded....because of serious depression issues I have been holed up in bed for months.....watching this was scary but I still don't know if it will get me to go into doc office again with a stranger after so many years with the same PCP
@Betty Amber I did not have a cyst, It was a large blood clot the whole time. I really don't remember how it was diagnosed in the Emergency Department. CT or MRI I would guess, I'm just thankful that it was.
Can't tell you how helpful this is after my Aunt suffered a stroke couple days ago. Timing is pretty wild. Always love the amount of information ya'll put into these videos and yet keep it comprehensive enough for those not familiar to follow along. Thank you soooo much!

Thanks for getting this out there. I feel like not enough people are really aware of blood clots. I lost my big brother due to a pulmonary embolism 2 years ago now, and it's made blood clots a top of mind fear ever since.
I suffered several mini-strokes when I was 5 years old I am partially paralyzed on the left side of my body I am now 27 years old turning 28th August 6th it is now June 22nd long story short I am fine now I am healthy I am well but I am still partially realized unless everybody I can walk I can run I can hop skip jump you name it I have a hard time using my left hand but I'm still working on it my one eye goes to the side I can still see out of both eyes I am just living day by day enjoying every part of my life that I can and that I will I'm just lucky to be alive living life to its fullest!
When you're literally dying to know whats wrong with you, this type of information is greatly appreciated. Its a blessing to have access to this channel even though i found this quite complicated, but i guess life complicated.
Over 10 years ago, I had a pain in my chest that felt like someone was twisting a fish hook right behind my left nipple. Went to my clinic and found out I had multiple blood clots on both my lungs. Somehow, the doc I saw did not do a damn thing, not even tell me to take an aspirin... so when I told a friend about it, she got this look on her face and she told me to go in ASAP and get a new doctor. I did. Saw a new doc and was giving myself sub-q shots that afternoon and immediately started on Coumadin. I have to take it every day for the rest of my life. I am a very healthy bicyclist, and was pretty shocked about the clots... but was told that anyone from a ballerina to a truck driver can get clots, there is just no telling.
HEY I'm also a bicyclist!!!! I have a clot in my left leg and some small ones in my lungs.... But I got it when I was 16 I'm 17 now XD coumadin is nice I'm taking it too
Aneurysms and blood clots are the scariest medical emergencies to me. A girl I went to high school with died suddenly of a pulmonary embolism when she was only 28. A few years ago one of my favorite pharmacy pts died from a brain aneurysm. Neither person had much warning and both were alone. Anyway, I’m terrified.
I had an aneurysm in my brain when I was 16. Got told I will die before I became 18 years old. So i got operated and now it is clipped of. Had a stroke afterwards because part of my brain remained unprovided even though I got an bypass. However I am now 22 years old and health wise totally fine. So medicine is awesome.
I just got out of the hospital due to a massive pulmonary embolism in my right lung. I dealt with the pain for 1 day until it got so excruciating I couldn't stand it and went to the ER. They said if I would've waited just another hour I would've died. It was so big it was effecting my heart rate and causing it to drop down into the low 30s when I would sleep. I had to have an emergency pulmonary angiogram which is where they insert a catheter into your femoral artery and feed it all the way to your heart and lungs to suck the clot out, all while you are completely awake, slightly sedated with fentanyl. I could literally feel them digging around in my chest, by far the weirdest/painful feeling ever.
My husband survived a pulmonary embolism, which initially started as an undiagnosed DVT, he was sent home from hospital having been told he had a pulled muscle! It was absolutely terrifying when it happened. It was only when he collapsed at home a few hours later, I knew it was something far serious.
He was really lucky, once consciousness is lost especially if not in clinical settings, the death spiral is well underway. I just lost my dad to a massive PE. 30-60 min from feeling fine to death. Resuscitation does not help in severe PE.
I had a pulmonary embolism back in 2012. Made it to the ER just in time. I can only describe it as having flu symptoms, but only when on my feet. When I laid down, I felt fine. But if I had to use the restroom, it would feel like I ran a marathon. At that time, I was smoking a pack of cigarettes a day and was 340-lbs, give or take, at 6'-3" living a sedentary lifestyle. Now, I'm at a healthy weight and body composition (13% BF), and eat a diet of whole foods and a non-smoker. My quality of life has never been better.
I learn so much from you. Thank you so much for all of these videos. They are incredible!! And I love the graphics. I am a visual learner and it helps so much!!
Had two DVT and a lung embolism 5 years ago. Since then, i must take anticoagulants and wear compression upper to my hips, to avoid another thrombosis. It was extremely hard to recover from it, the way from the hospital bed to the exit alone was 30mins and must take a seat three times. Never ever want to had such an experience again... Thank you for the video!
10 days after surgery on my leg I woke up suddenly that night with excruciating chest pain and could not breathe. I thought it was a heart attack but it was bilateral pulmonary emboli, multiple small clots in both lungs, unbelievably sore. Spent a few days in hospital and a year on anticoagulants, it was triggered by the surgery and wouldn't have happened just out of the blue. Made a full recovery 🙂
One of my most special of friends passed away a year ago due to a blood clot so thank you for explaining the “ blood clot “ formation, process and effects.
Love this! I've had so many blood clots in my lungs they said the CT looked like a starry night. And I lived with it for 2 months B4 going to the ER. I assumed it was a Lupus flare.

I had DVT and a pulmonary embolism when I was twenty years old after long haul flight. Afterwards, was diagnosed with Factor V Leiden clotting disorder. Long haul flight, birth control, and clotting disorder - a recipe for disaster I never saw coming at such a young age. Lucky to be alive!

I had a DVT a few years back at the age of 21. My entire leg from foot to hip was incredibly swollen and painful. It easily doubled in size. By far the most pain I've ever felt. No amount of pain medication would help at all. Got treated with anti coagulants and stayed in hospital for 2 days. They found out I had a copy of the Leiden V mutation. And other than the fact that I can never use certain birth control types ever again, 3 years later it's all good. But it's definitely scary to think how bad it could have been if it wasn't caught when it was. I was actually supposed to be on a 12+ hour plane school trip the day after I got admitted to hospital. Felt like I dodged a bullet there.
To me happened the exact same thing 3 years ago. Pain was agonizing. The incident gave me finally the motivation to stop smoking. Still miss those super sexy compression stockings :D
A month ago I had the same experience, they kept me for two weeks at the hospital, for me the worst thing about the pain was that I couldn't sleep at night and was constantly exhausted, I'm still on anticoagulants
My mom had a PE last week. The ER doctors saved her life because they recognized her symptoms before they did a scan and were able to diagnose right away. She is 73. They told us it just wasn't her time. That I thank God for.

I would think menstrual cycle clots are form in the uterus and coming down sitting there . I do realize I get them right after I lay down then get up that’s just me
My mom died of pulmonary embolism it took 3 weeks before she died, your explanation describes it perfectly. I didn’t even much about it till now, thanks for giving me some closure
My mom a couple days ago had a blood clot go from her leg to her brain, She’s recovering now but having her that close to death was scary i couldn’t even imagine, i’m sorry for your loss
My father had DVT for almost 7 years and just as mentioned in this video, the clot travelled to his heart and he passed away. It's scary what a small blood clot can do.
That is what eventually killed my dad too. 7 strokes in 6 months. They couldn't get a handle on the clots. I guess in 1991 they just didn't have the technology they do today.
Oh god ❤️ i have lupus and antibodies that predispose me to clots. Thankfully I’ve never had one *knocks wood * - all my love friend, wouldn’t wish autoimmunity on anyone ❤️
I had a PE in 2015. I was in hospital for two and a half weeks as I also had a bad chest infection and asthma. It was found that I have Factor V Leiden and so have been on blood thinners ever since. I feel very lucky and grateful to my sons who called an ambulance.
My dad survived six years of hardships after his stroke, sadly he passed suddenly last year on may 11 around 2-5am. It affected his motor controls and right after he went in the the room where they nurse and operate if that's the correct word he fell into a coma for around 3 days which the doctor told me and my mum. And I want to know why he passed. But by making this videos you have helped me and many uncover the unknowns in ourselves and of people close and far. Thank you for educating us and giving information about how, what, why, when, and where's of the human body. My English is not good but I hope you can understand it, that aside I truly thank you and appreciate your hard work.
So scary. My mom had a PE when I was about 14. I will never ever forget that day. So thankful she's alive and okay. Listen to your body. If she hadn't called an ambulance, she wouldn't have survived.
@@naileasalgado9028 She started passing out even while sitting and was very short of breath. I don't know if she had symptoms before then or if they were sudden. She just knew something was wrong.
My grandmother was just hospitalized with a blood clot last night, so the timing on this video is pretty crazy. Thanks for the helpful info! Would be awesome if you guys could explain Mixed Connective Tissue Disease. Would love to learn more about this.
My dad developed a blood clot that blocked one of the arteries in his heart. It caused hum to have 10 heart attacks in 24hours. He was given a medication to break it down, which can only be used once in your lifetime. They then had to put a stent into the damaged artery. He was then diagnosed with terminal heart failure as a result of the damage. We were incredibly fortunate to have him for another 16years before his heart finally gave up
@@deepapatricia I know. It was so hard watching him suffer from daily angina attacks and heart attacks due to the heart damage. But every day was a blessing with him.
Having had chronic pulmonary embolisms, as well as DVT, but also having severe brain hemorrhaging, this is rather interesting. Both happened during a long coma, so I know about it, only by reading my medical records. I am now on Coumadin for life, starting in my mid 20’s.
Thank you for this video. I have a genetic condition called Antithrombin Deficiency Disorder where my blood clots more easily than normal. Seven years ago I had a massive bilateral pulmonary embolism that came without warning. I went to bed fine and woke up and my heart was racing. I had to fight to keep from blacking out. I honestly believed that was the day I would die. The right side of my heart is damaged from the pressure of the clots. Had the clots been just a few mm larger there would have been complete blockage of the pulmonary artery. I had a second pulmonary embolism again without warning a year after that. My left leg is permanently damaged from the multiple blood clots. I am on warfarin.
Could you guys make a video about ocular migraine?? There's not much information on that in the internet, so would be very helpful! Obsessed with your channel!😊
@@craigsips8677 I had first two at the age of 13, and then other two recently(I'm 26), and the weird part is that I had them right after working out at the gym, so I'm super curious what causes them.
Hii I'm from India nd I'm a medical student 😄 Your video's are so helpful to me nd i really appreciate your hardwork that you're doing to make the person know about the thing they carry 24/7 with them nd without it they can't exist 👍❤️
Good way: Hemostasis: Occurs during injury to arrest the excess loss of blood. Blood contains blood platelets, thrombin proteins, fibrinogen. Once blood platelets gets struck, thrombin proteins react with fibrinogen to create fibrin which creates mesh on blood platelets which is actually blood clot in a natural way. This is called as fibrin mesh clot. Bad way: Mural Thrombosis, Embolism -- occurs at either veins or aorta. Thrombosis - blood clotting without bleeding. Smoking, birth control to avoid pregnancy, prolonged immobility causes blood clots to happen. Types of Thrombus - Mural thrombus, Occlusive thrombus ( blood clots at heart ) Mural thrombus: clots happens at the inside the wall of aorta , inside the chambers of heart.Mural thrombus can either be detached or stay that way forever. Occlusive thrombus: obstruction, blocking blood flow. Happens because of the prolonged immobility. Whenever natural blood flow is getting obstructed because of smaller blood vessel, it leads to occlusive thrombus. It can also happen when mural thrombus gets detached from heart and gets settled in leading blood vessels from heart which now becomes occlusive thrombus. Embolus: Whenever blood clots gets detached and travels through blood stream. Anything that is part of blood which obstructs natural blood flow is known as emboli. Ex: Fat, amniotic fluid, air in blood are the various emboli which causes blood clots. Area where blood flow is restricted because of emboli is known as embolism. Embolism : Venous Thrombo Embolism, Arterial Thrombosis Embolism. Blood clots also happens at blood capillaries which is micro clots. Deep Vein Thrombosis: Blood clots that happens at the deeper blood veins is known deep vein thrombosis. Mostly happens at the pelvis area/legs in the deeper blood veins that is present at the center inner portion of thigh region. It can also happen in arms. Symptoms: pain, swellings, pain can increase when you put more weight. If blood clots get detached from this region, clot travels towards heart which sets up pulmonary embolism. Sudden obstruction/occlusion of blood in pulmonary artery happens which goes back to heart. Returning blood from various body parts enters to heart through right ventricle which then flows to lungs. Pulmonary Artery/Vein vs Heart Artery Vein Pulmonary artery brings deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs, pulmonary vein - takes oxygenated blood away from lungs to heart. In terms of heart, artery - takes blood away from heart, vein - takes blood to heart. Pulmonary Embolism If blood clot happens at either of pulmonary artery or vein, this leads to lungs deprived of blood causing lungs not to work efficiently in oxygenating the blood. Chest pain and shortness of breath are the symptoms of pulmonary embolism. Because of inefficient work of lungs, heart get less amount of blood which in turn tries hard to pump more blood out of heart which ultimately leads to cardiac arrest/stress/strain on heart. Severe case of pulmonary embolism leads to cardiac arrest. Deep Artery Thrombosis: Blood clot happens at the deep arteries is known deep artery thrombosis.This causes damage to brain, ultimately stroke. Aorta from heart branches out to external or internal carotid artery which supplies blood to brain. If Mural Thrombus gets detached from inner walls of aorta or inner chambers of heart, and gets settled in either carotid artery or cerebral arteries which causes stroke which is basically lack of blood, oxygen to brain tissues. If it is smaller thrombus, it can get into meningeal system causing serious damage to life. Treatment: Anticoagulants - commonly known as blood thinner - Will not break the existing blood clots but prevents more blood clot to happen. Surgical treatment to remove blood clots in lungs is not recommended now-a-days. But it is commonly used to remove clots in arms and legs. #உடற்கூறியல்அறிவோம் #படிக்காமலே_எம்பிபிஎஸ்
I've had my 2nd aortic valve operation and now on Warfarin to prevent blood clots so this was really interesting! The Warfarin is a pain since I can't even get a paper cut without bleeding all over but it prevents clotting
Weird, I've been on blood thinners for 30 years and never had any bleeding problems, but I think they aim for a higher INR for people who have had heart surgery than for people with clotting disorders. I'm supposed to be beween 2 and 3, I think the range goes up to 3.5 for people with heart problems.
@@Primalxbeast Yeah my INR level ranges between 2.5 and 3.5 and the amount of warfarin needs to change almost monthly due my inr levels changing all time! Which means weekly doctor visits :( I had my 2nd surgery at 26 so only been on it a couple years
4:55 bro i feel you on that, no matter how much bigger it is, it's also incomparably small in comparison to the actual universe or even the other structures inside it lik super clusters, individual galaxies, and nebulae.
My dad died because of Pulmonary embolism when I was 4 years old, he was working in China as a businessman for his company from Germany, it all first began when he fell asleep on the sofa with the AC blowing on his legs for hours, when he woke up he had intense pain and my mom brought him to the hospital where the doctors didn't know what was going on and said that they'll examine him the next day, my mom was worried because in China the hospitals differ vastly on quality, the hospitals that most people go to are mostly with bad/fake doctors that's also overpopulated, and this is one of them, because it was the nearest hospital my mom decided that it's better not to transfer to a better private hospital. But the next day it was too late, my dad had died in the middle of the night because the blood clot had reached his lungs, my mom even saw the doctors reading a thick book on what to do because the doctor seem to have no idea on what's going on even though they could've easily saved my dad. My mom wanted to file a lawsuit but decided it wasn't worth it, at most she'll get some compensation but it won't bring back my dad. I hate Chinese hospitals where it's mostly filled with unworthy, uneducated and corrupt staff members.
I love your channel. I’m not a doctor or nurse but I was a teacher. I was an anatomy and physiology teacher many moons ago. I’m now retired and have forgotten many things that I knew about the human body. Anyway, your channel has refreshed and stimulated my mind. As a Senior citizen I definitely believe in mind stimulation. So, Thank You again.
These are so interesting to watch! I'm not pre-med but I like to educate myself (and potentially others) about how these proteins & compounds interact with our systems. I hope I can apply some of this stuff when I go to veterinary school!
I survived four simultaneous pulmonary embolisms due to unknown causes (two in each lobe of my lungs) in October 2019. I will be on anticoagulant medication for the rest of my days. See a doctor if you experience unexpected leg pain (with or without swelling). I had a complete blockage of my femoral vein (deep veins thrombosis behind my left knee) and developed the pulmonary embolisms six days later (parts of the clot in my leg likely went to my lungs after passing through my heart). My initial symptom was severe leg pain (cramp-like feeling) for no readily identifiable reason.
This is so fascinating. I knew roughly what blood clots were/what they did and I was familiar with the terms used but until watching this, I had never put the two together. I love learning about human biology and when I add more information to topics I already have a basic working knowledge of, it makes me so happy :)

I’ve watched many of your guys videos and as well with our son as I find them to be very educational and visually forward. Don’t stop educating us all as it’s very useful for all the visuals out there or those like myself who simple enjoy further education. Great job guys
I had DVT two years back.. Due to smoking ... Iam still smoker.... But by watching this video..I quit smoking..... Good explanation... thank you all doctors...
I was on blood thinners for over a year because if a DVT and was given the green light to stop taking them in April. A month later (last week), I'm in the hospital with DVTs in both legs and PEs in both lungs. Doctors suspect it's hormone related. No pain or swelling in my legs.
Oh my, I'm glad that you are alright. I was given the green light to stop my thinner three months age after a PE in March 2021. They never found out where the PE came from so I'm doing my best to think positive. I walk an hour a 5 days per week now and move around more at work. 🙏 God bless you with good health.
I installed a break timer on my PC right after he started talking about prolonged sitting. I always heard people talking about how taking breaks is important, but hearing horror stories about what can happen if you don't is a *much* stronger motivator!
I had a right calf DVT as well as bilateral lower lobe segmental and subsegmental PE's last year. I was on Eliquis for 6 months. Oddly enough, I had no symptoms of a DVT. I went to the ER with chest pain and increased shortness of breath.
In 1965 my father and I were in a traffic accident which broke his jaw and left hip. He made it through the surgeries just fine but back then they didn't make you get up and move around like today. 10 days after the traffic incident a blood clot came from his hip which was fatal. I know all too well blood clots can be extremely dangerous. As for me, I had a broken collar bone and took out the windshield with the side of my head.
OMG. Sorry to hear that your dad developed a blood clot and passed away. I had a cousin who was hit hard in her pelvic area from a horse trailer hitch. She was fine after a couple weeks of feeling very sore there. Then one day soon after the incident she was home making dinner and went to take a bath while the food baked in the oven. She was found dead by her husband when he got home after work. It seems the hot bath she was sitting it had loosened a blood clot caused by being hit by the horse trailer a couple weeks before. She was a healthy 33 year old woman.
I had a blood clot in my arm after surgery. The IV caused an inflammation in my deep veins, what has triggerd a trombosis, not even mentioning the massive swelling in my arm. The blood thinners was a hell and my hormones was upset,. I had a really heavy period for 3 weeks and was running low on iron because of it. Trombosis can happen everywhere at any given time..
I survived a PE without any medical assistance. My doctor said later that I was very lucky and that it must've been very small. The pain on my chest was a crushing pain, every small breath of air I pushed in was like 1000 knives. It was probably a small cloth dislodged from a meniscus repair surgery. This video is very educational, thanks.

I loved this video so much. In July of 2018 I survived a Saddle PE. I was in a room for observation my husband and Mom were there when the ER Dr. came in and said Don"t move! The last test they did was an Abd CT. It showed that part of the masive clot I had in my leg had broken free to create the Saddle PE, it was explained much later that this is usually found when an autopsyis performed. I spent 13 days in the hospital, I also had Addison's Disease that had not been diagnosed at that time. Your explanation was so clear and understandable. Thank you!
I recently had bi-lateral pulmonary embolism and was rushed into treatment with EKOS. This video really woke me up to how serious my problem was. It’s been suggested that a seatbelt injury from an auto accident could have caused trauma resulting in the formation of the clots. Wow…just wow, I’m thankful to be here today.
What if you regularly get clots during your period cycle? Are you predisposed to stokes and heart issues? Would being on birth control double your chances? 🤔
I think yes to a small extent to be safe. Bc pcos is a trigger for a worser COVID bout. Which is associated with micro clots. I also noticed more clots after having Covid. Nothing massive but i never had one before.
I had the same question about birth control when my doctor was questioning if I ever had thrombosis, he said it would be a problem, but he didn't out right said if taking the birth control would increase the risk for thrombosis. I'm still a little confused.
Sir, I am in std 11 right now and studying for giving my medical examination in 2024 , ... I have been following your channel since I was in 9th, ... Kind of obsessed by these videos.,❤️❤️ Thank you so much
They you need to see a doctor. If you have one, it prob won’t just go away on its own. It might break off and travel up to your lungs or brain. You don’t want a clot there
" Anything traveling through the blood stream could be a Thrombosis" My mind instantly went to Microplastics and the deck of cards we accumulate in out system. Nice that we never mentioned that . Loved the video! 10/10
😮🙄me too. Still very good to know how complex our bodies are. I love to understand things better. I think I am going to walk around a bit...to the kitchen. 🤣💙💫
Would be cool if humans had backup blood vessels, with valves that stayed closed when everything was normal, but then opened up as a new pathway when higher blood pressure or blockages were detected
This was super interesting. In 2020 I had a massive DVT and pulmonary embolism, they said it was due to my birth control. My leg was super swollen and purple when I woke up in the middle of the night. They did a surgery to remove the clot in my pelvis and leg. Was in the hospital for a week. It was intense, but thankful I’m fully recovered. No one really tells you how common this is with women on birth control. Pretty nuts.

Ever since I stumbled into this channel a year ago, I understand my own body and its complicated systems much better now. I no longer rush to the Dr every time I feel a bit sick 😂😂
After I had 2 really bad nose bleeds in the same day a blood clot came out of my nose and I didn't know what it was and got really scared and I couldn't find information on it besides this video, thank you!
My uncle died of a blood clot in his brain post surgery (a number of surgeries, actually, after a farming accident). Of course that's always a risk after major surgery, but it still caught us very of guard. It took literally seconds to go from recovering just fine to boom - gone. It's my new biggest fear.
I was thinking of strokes as my mum had a severe stroke in 1991 (they think maybe 2 affecting the left side of the brain- 1 at home, 1 in the ambulance on the way to the hospital). The doctors think that her stroke was probably caused by her smoking and having birth control pills but they weren't 100% sure!
This was a hard one to watch. A pulmonary embolism took my father from me over 20 years ago. I was only 19. He broke his ankle had to wear a cast. He was not treated with anti coagulation medication although he had suffered a similar injury a few years prior and had suffered an embolism then too. I have always been fascinated by the human body and love your videos. This one helped me understand exactly what happened to my dad.
Been two years since my PE (right lower lobe) and DVT(left calf). Scary thing is I had none of the classic symptoms. My symptoms were mild cramping in my legs and a pain in my back which felt like a pulled muscle. What prompted me to go to urgent care was that my heart rate would be sky high when I walked around. I’m now on warfarin for life. They think it might have been the birth control but of course they are not certain even after being tested for every genetic condition. For everyone on anticoagulant carry something that says what anticoagulant you’re on just in case something happens and you can’t verbally communicate.
I have factor v leiden and had a blood clot in my right leg when I was 15 years old. I was hospitalized for 6 months due to my first Crohn’s disease flared. I wouldn’t have even known I had factor v Leiden if I never got that blood clot.
Years ago my mom was suffering from uterine fibroids and was bleeding heavily. Our doc put her on birth control so she wouldn't bleed over her trip to Hawaii. It caused a DVT in her calf, thankfully she recovered and got a hysterectomy to fix the excess bleeding.
I collapsed in a hospital hallway due to a pulmonary embolism(PE). I had an ACL reconstruction a week prior due to a knee hyperextension while playing in a college basketball game (Div 1 🙂). I was at the hospital getting my stitches removed when I complained of various symptoms, including darkness under my eyes. I was at the imaging department for a chest xray when I had collapsed. I spent a week in the hospital and at first they stated my PE was simply due to my ACL reconstruction... but that changed a over the course of the week. Near the end of my stay in hospital, I underwent another scan of my lungs to check the clots. About 4 hours later I had about 5 doctors come in to my room. They seemed to be a little excited and suprised. They mentioned to me how the scan accidentally caught a portion of my adrenal glands and that they noticed they were both enlarged. They essentially found 2 pheochromocytomas. "Pheos" are tumors in adrenal glands that produce excessive adrenaline. After some testing it was found I was producing ~40x more adrenaline (epinephrine) than most people. It was found these tumors were malignant, and the cancer had spread to my thyroid. It was aslo found I have a condition called multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2. A year after undergoing a bilateral adrenalectomy and a thyroidectecomy, I was found to have a rare blood condition called polycythemia vera (PV). I now take lifelong steroids to replace the hormones I'm missing, as well as phlebotomies every two weeks to remove excess blood that can cause thick blood and clots from forming. I still workout, run, eat healthy and play basketball. That's my story. 🙂 There's a lot more to the story... but this is the extremely quick version. I left out the heart attacks and other events.
Ahh Last year I had a DVT that went to my lungs causing a Pulmonary Embolism. I was fine and then the next second I literally couldn't breathe, I really thought I was going to die. It was by far the worst thing I have ever experienced, the pain and horror of gasping for literally every breath is indescribable. Thankfully I was able to get to the hospital quickly and the doctors figured it out quickly, I had a scan that showed multiple blood clots in my right lung, took a long time to recover. Please be careful if you are not moving for an extended amount of time because trust me you do not want to go through this.
My dad had [possibly- more likely two strokes] but definitely one major stroke in 2019- very close to when the [Plan]demic struck. He was totally paralyzed and needed a tracheotomy. He also contracted pneumonia while he was in the hospital. He could hardly whisper to get any message across to people. What actually took his life afterward- was an embolism in his lung. It still breaks my heart to know all this happened to him just before his death. Thank you very much for explaining this topic.
I work in a nursing home as a laundry aide, and it's very scary to see a resident be perfectly healthy at one point, but then pass away not long after from a blood clot.
I found out I have Factor Five Leiden when I got pneumonia which resulted in a pulmonary embolism while pregnant. I couldn’t breath. I was lucky to have survived. But pregnancy increases your risk of blood clotting. So when I get pregnant I have to inject myself with lovanox and take other medications to prevent miscarriage. Even those don’t work. After about 6 miscarriages I just stopped trying. 😒
I was coughing up multiple blood clots about 2 weeks ago, which was 6 days after I had a tonsillectomy. They are big blobs of blood and are actually so cool, like a super thick blob (the mesh clot). I like learning about the body and I wish I had more time to dissect and examine the clots, but I had to get to the ER to get an emergency surgery in the middle of the night to cauterize my throat. This video helps me understand how my body was trying to save me from bleeding to death. However, I was wondering why the blood clots couldn't seal up my throat wound and I had be recauterized through surgery? Is it because you can't apply pressure to the wound like you could with a cut on your arm or leg? Also, I stopped bleeding while I drove 30 minutes to the ER. Then I started coughing up more blood clots again when I got there! I guess more clots were forming while I was driving!
@Betty Amber I'm so sorry to hear that! When I was getting ready for emergency surgery, one of the last things the surgeon said was to possibly get some blood ready for a transfusion if my blood was low. Thank God I didn't need it! What happened to your friend, did he not make it back to the hospital in time? That is devastating.
yea i remember having a nose bleed and i titled my head back and pinched my nose. not a good idea and i felt blood coming up my throat turns out when i coughed it out it was a blood clot
Had extensive bilateral pulmonary embolisms in 2018 caused by birth control and a clotting disorder (antiphospholipid syndrome). Ended up making the right side of my heart fail. Was in the hospital for 27 days and was on life support for 5 days. I wish people were more educated on blood clots. Thank you for making this video!
I have stage 4, non curable ovarian cancer. Back in December of 2022, I also caught Covid. Both of these conditions cause blood clots. I got a pulmonary embolism and was hospitalized for 12 days. Everyday, I worry about that blood clot and if I’m gonna get another one.
Definitely curoius to watch your video on strokes when it comes out, I have an uncle who had two different types of strokes, so he can't be on meds for either
My friend currently has more than a few blood clots in her lungs. It was caused by the birth control her mom forced her to be on- safe to say shes off it. She had to be in the hospital for a few days. What sucks even more is that she was given a scholarship for track and cross country in college but now she cant run too much or she feels like fainting. Running had always been her coping mechanism and escape. Its been a few months now and shes definitely stronger. We make jokes now that if we scare her slightly she goes " oW my pulmonary embolism" shes faking the ow dw dw
If this mean anything... I am so proud of two of you... my God. Thank you for all this lessons. First time I have watched your video was last year when dog bites me. I was afraid an searching about that and than I found your channel. This all is to cool. If I were student of medicine I would be the best one 🙃 Thank you for all. Best regards
I am 72 year-old and been suffering from Pulmonary Embolism from 2017 and I am using blood thinner since then. Thank for this video I am now clear about this illness and thanks that I am still alive

According to the koran we were all created from a blood clot [congealed blood].
Chapter 96 of the koran is titled "The Blood Clot".
I'd dare say that the science of the koran is lacking. 😁

I’ve always had very painful period pains growing up and sometimes would go for months without getting on my periods and when I finally did I would feel like I am giving birth after pushing out a clot out of my vagina. This year January I had the worst experience, I pushed out two huge blood clots which were the size of my hands. I couldn’t walk or anything, all I did was vomit but after pushing the last clot it was as if I never had pain on my abdomen and my period pains ever since have been mild. I hate blood clots!😭💔
I'm not a doctor but PLEASE go and get this check out. This is not normal and you should not have to suffer through that. ❤ take care of yourself
I had the same problem when I was younger I had terrible periods and ya blood clots!!! but I grew out of it but my Dr. Did prescribe birth control once I was on birth control I had less problems with my periods
Please tell me you are going to the doctor
Please go and check this with a gynecologist/OB. I had the same issue for years and when I went to the doctor 3 yrs ago it turned out to be hormonal imbalance and endometriosis. Currently taking birth control to help it.
Black Cohosh & Evening Primrose oil helped me but not giving medical advice.
as so as I saw the blood clot I instantly thought period.
Really because I thought vaccines. 💉💉
I have had several issues with blood clots during pregnancy, with DVT and PE. I had to take those painful shots in the tummy while carrying a person. I don't think I will ever forget that phase of my life... Thanks for helping us to understand how they form and how to prevent them.
I need to start the shots soon , I’m not looking forward to it .
I’m ready for this pregnancy to be over with myself & baby healthy 🧡

Extremely interesting video. My dad has suffered from DVTs for 60 years and has been hospitalized several times for pulmonary embolisms. He has had his veins stripped because the valves do not close properly. Thank goodness for blood thinners.
I'm a victim of DVT and had the first one in 2016. In 2021 it struck again twice. The pain is unexplainable!!! My left leg got swollen ever since the first attack
Thank you, thank you!!!! I was diagnosed with DVT back in 2006. I had a blood clot that extended from my right elbow up into my collar bone. I was immediately hospitalized and put on blood thinners. After 6 months of treatment, the clot dissolved and I was taken off the medication. It was the scariest situation, but thank you Lord for healing. I haven't had one since! 🙌
I consider myself to be very lucky. In 02 or 03 I had pain behind my knee. I had an ultrasound on a Wednesday, on Thursday I was told that it was a Baker's Cyst. Fast forward to the following Monday, I was sitting at at my desk at work, and all of a sudden I got this sharp stabbing pain in my chest when I inhaled. I was short of breath. I could only inhale very shallow breaths. A co-worker drove me to the ER, I thought that was gas pains and wanted to leave. The hospital made me stay. My entire family showed up at the hospital. I tried again to leave, thinking it was gas pains. I ended up having 2 PE's, and that Baker's Cyst was a large DVT. I was getting Heparin through an IV, and Coumadin orally. I was in the hospital for a week. I didn't realize the danger that I was in until months later when I actually read up on Pulmonary Embolisms. I used to be afraid of needles, but after having blood drawn on the hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, etc., then going daily before work...weekly, bi-weekly....Needles don't scare me anymore. I was prescribed Warfarin, and was forbidden from using a razor for shaving. I was putting out Rat Poison in my garage and was reading the ingredient list. Warfarin was the main ingredient. Sorry for the long post, just my story. I have a MI (heart attack) story too, but that's for another day. I know that I am one of the luckiest people on earth. Folks, live every day as if it were your last. I speak from experience.
I am currently at that stage of what my PCP (who no longer works at this place as of a week ago with just a letter sent out a warning of 2 wks before it happened) says maybe backer cyst, but I have pain and some bulging behind both knees and its not like a cyst at all so i keep putting off having it ultrasounded....because of serious depression issues I have been holed up in bed for months.....watching this was scary but I still don't know if it will get me to go into doc office again with a stranger after so many years with the same PCP
sounds like getting an ultrasound is sort of worthless though....how did they miss it?
@@solistic33 you need to get it checked by someone.
@@solistic33 incompetence. I should have sued everyone involved, but I didn't. That error could have killed me.
@Betty Amber I did not have a cyst, It was a large blood clot the whole time. I really don't remember how it was diagnosed in the Emergency Department. CT or MRI I would guess, I'm just thankful that it was.
Can't tell you how helpful this is after my Aunt suffered a stroke couple days ago. Timing is pretty wild. Always love the amount of information ya'll put into these videos and yet keep it comprehensive enough for those not familiar to follow along. Thank you soooo much!

Thanks for getting this out there. I feel like not enough people are really aware of blood clots. I lost my big brother due to a pulmonary embolism 2 years ago now, and it's made blood clots a top of mind fear ever since.

Over 10 years ago, I had a pain in my chest that felt like someone was twisting a fish hook right behind my left nipple. Went to my clinic and found out I had multiple blood clots on both my lungs.
Somehow, the doc I saw did not do a damn thing, not even tell me to take an aspirin... so when I told a friend about it, she got this look on her face and she told me to go in ASAP and get a new doctor.
I did.
Saw a new doc and was giving myself sub-q shots that afternoon and immediately started on Coumadin. I have to take it every day for the rest of my life.
I am a very healthy bicyclist, and was pretty shocked about the clots... but was told that anyone from a ballerina to a truck driver can get clots, there is just no telling.
Too much wear and tear gives you clots. You need rest.
Don't scare me 🥶
Hi Roger! Did you receive a diagnosis?
HEY I'm also a bicyclist!!!! I have a clot in my left leg and some small ones in my lungs.... But I got it when I was 16 I'm 17 now XD coumadin is nice I'm taking it too
It stretched from my hip to my knee in length which sucked
Aneurysms and blood clots are the scariest medical emergencies to me. A girl I went to high school with died suddenly of a pulmonary embolism when she was only 28. A few years ago one of my favorite pharmacy pts died from a brain aneurysm. Neither person had much warning and both were alone. Anyway, I’m terrified.
I had an aneurysm in my brain when I was 16. Got told I will die before I became 18 years old.
So i got operated and now it is clipped of. Had a stroke afterwards because part of my brain remained unprovided even though I got an bypass.
However I am now 22 years old and health wise totally fine. So medicine is awesome.

The new MRNA vaccine is causing blood clots
I just got out of the hospital due to a massive pulmonary embolism in my right lung. I dealt with the pain for 1 day until it got so excruciating I couldn't stand it and went to the ER. They said if I would've waited just another hour I would've died. It was so big it was effecting my heart rate and causing it to drop down into the low 30s when I would sleep. I had to have an emergency pulmonary angiogram which is where they insert a catheter into your femoral artery and feed it all the way to your heart and lungs to suck the clot out, all while you are completely awake, slightly sedated with fentanyl. I could literally feel them digging around in my chest, by far the weirdest/painful feeling ever.
My husband survived a pulmonary embolism, which initially started as an undiagnosed DVT, he was sent home from hospital having been told he had a pulled muscle! It was absolutely terrifying when it happened. It was only when he collapsed at home a few hours later, I knew it was something far serious.
He was really lucky, once consciousness is lost especially if not in clinical settings, the death spiral is well underway.
I just lost my dad to a massive PE. 30-60 min from feeling fine to death.
Resuscitation does not help in severe PE.
I had a pulmonary embolism back in 2012. Made it to the ER just in time. I can only describe it as having flu symptoms, but only when on my feet. When I laid down, I felt fine. But if I had to use the restroom, it would feel like I ran a marathon. At that time, I was smoking a pack of cigarettes a day and was 340-lbs, give or take, at 6'-3" living a sedentary lifestyle. Now, I'm at a healthy weight and body composition (13% BF), and eat a diet of whole foods and a non-smoker. My quality of life has never been better.

I would like to recommend you the video of Veritasium called "You're not a visual learner"
Had two DVT and a lung embolism 5 years ago. Since then, i must take anticoagulants and wear compression upper to my hips, to avoid another thrombosis.
It was extremely hard to recover from it, the way from the hospital bed to the exit alone was 30mins and must take a seat three times.
Never ever want to had such an experience again...
Thank you for the video!
10 days after surgery on my leg I woke up suddenly that night with excruciating chest pain and could not breathe. I thought it was a heart attack but it was bilateral pulmonary emboli, multiple small clots in both lungs, unbelievably sore. Spent a few days in hospital and a year on anticoagulants, it was triggered by the surgery and wouldn't have happened just out of the blue. Made a full recovery 🙂
Yes - he didn't cover blood clots from surgery. I also got one from surgery.
Hallelujah Amen! To God Be All The Glory For Your full recovery!
You are such a great teacher. You take a complex topic and breaks it down really well! Thank you. Keep it coming!
One of my most special of friends passed away a year ago due to a blood clot so thank you for explaining the “ blood clot “ formation, process and effects.
Love this! I've had so many blood clots in my lungs they said the CT looked like a starry night. And I lived with it for 2 months B4 going to the ER. I assumed it was a Lupus flare.

I had DVT and a pulmonary embolism when I was twenty years old after long haul flight. Afterwards, was diagnosed with Factor V Leiden clotting disorder. Long haul flight, birth control, and clotting disorder - a recipe for disaster I never saw coming at such a young age. Lucky to be alive!
I have Factor V Leiden too, had DVT's and Bilateral Pulmonary Embolism in my lungs. I understand you

I had a DVT a few years back at the age of 21. My entire leg from foot to hip was incredibly swollen and painful. It easily doubled in size. By far the most pain I've ever felt. No amount of pain medication would help at all. Got treated with anti coagulants and stayed in hospital for 2 days. They found out I had a copy of the Leiden V mutation. And other than the fact that I can never use certain birth control types ever again, 3 years later it's all good. But it's definitely scary to think how bad it could have been if it wasn't caught when it was. I was actually supposed to be on a 12+ hour plane school trip the day after I got admitted to hospital. Felt like I dodged a bullet there.
Glad you made it safely
Glad you’re okay!
To me happened the exact same thing 3 years ago. Pain was agonizing. The incident gave me finally the motivation to stop smoking. Still miss those super sexy compression stockings :D
The new MRNA vaccines are causing blood clots
A month ago I had the same experience, they kept me for two weeks at the hospital, for me the worst thing about the pain was that I couldn't sleep at night and was constantly exhausted, I'm still on anticoagulants
My mom had a PE last week. The ER doctors saved her life because they recognized her symptoms before they did a scan and were able to diagnose right away. She is 73. They told us it just wasn't her time. That I thank God for.

Would be interesting to see how this applies to menstrual clots too.
I would think menstrual cycle clots are form in the uterus and coming down sitting there . I do realize I get them right after I lay down then get up that’s just me
I only get them doing my periods too I hope it’s not a bad thing
@@Missvlog89 It's best to get checked out to rule out fibroids, endometriosis, etc
@@7CitesChic757 thank you 🙏🏽
My mom died of pulmonary embolism it took 3 weeks before she died, your explanation describes it perfectly. I didn’t even much about it till now, thanks for giving me some closure
My mom a couple days ago had a blood clot go from her leg to her brain, She’s recovering now but having her that close to death was scary i couldn’t even imagine, i’m sorry for your loss
@@massman1216 holy crap, sorry to hear that.... I can't even imagine
My father had DVT for almost 7 years and just as mentioned in this video, the clot travelled to his heart and he passed away. It's scary what a small blood clot can do.
Me too, I didn't know it would be this dangerous. Well, I'm so sorry for what your father had to go through. Hope you're doing well.
I am so sorry for your loss.. It's terrible to lose a father at any age. I hope you only have happy memories. Kindest regards.
@@petpauro7461 You seriously didn't know? Where have you been? Of course it's that dangerous.
That is what eventually killed my dad too. 7 strokes in 6 months. They couldn't get a handle on the clots. I guess in 1991 they just didn't have the technology they do today.
DVTs generally travel to the lungs, not the heart, which can cause cardiac arrest. I am very sorry for the loss of your father.
I have an autoimmune disease that makes clots everywhere. I had a mini stroke and actual big stroke in the same day at 30 and it was terrifying
Wow that really must be terrifying, best wishes to you!
Oh god ❤️ i have lupus and antibodies that predispose me to clots. Thankfully I’ve never had one *knocks wood * - all my love friend, wouldn’t wish autoimmunity on anyone ❤️
But what if the ana test comes back negative and the person has had it in the past? Does it affect the heart?
@@ektasathe212 ana tends to not vary too much with disease activity. Other autoantibodies absolutely can
Antiphospolipid antibody syndrome?
I had a PE in 2015. I was in hospital for two and a half weeks as I also had a bad chest infection and asthma. It was found that I have Factor V Leiden and so have been on blood thinners ever since. I feel very lucky and grateful to my sons who called an ambulance.
My dad survived six years of hardships after his stroke, sadly he passed suddenly last year on may 11 around 2-5am.
It affected his motor controls and right after he went in the the room where they nurse and operate if that's the correct word he fell into a coma for around 3 days which the doctor told me and my mum.
And I want to know why he passed. But
by making this videos you have helped me and many uncover the unknowns in ourselves and of people close and far.
Thank you for educating us and giving information about how, what, why, when, and where's of the human body.
My English is not good but I hope you can understand it, that aside I truly thank you and appreciate your hard work.
To add a bit of information my dad has ab+ blood type and his blood was oddly thick when he cuts himself from sharpening a knoife.
So scary. My mom had a PE when I was about 14. I will never ever forget that day. So thankful she's alive and okay. Listen to your body. If she hadn't called an ambulance, she wouldn't have survived.
What were her symptoms if you remember
@@naileasalgado9028 She started passing out even while sitting and was very short of breath. I don't know if she had symptoms before then or if they were sudden. She just knew something was wrong.
My grandmother was just hospitalized with a blood clot last night, so the timing on this video is pretty crazy. Thanks for the helpful info!
Would be awesome if you guys could explain Mixed Connective Tissue Disease. Would love to learn more about this.
My dad developed a blood clot that blocked one of the arteries in his heart. It caused hum to have 10 heart attacks in 24hours. He was given a medication to break it down, which can only be used once in your lifetime. They then had to put a stent into the damaged artery. He was then diagnosed with terminal heart failure as a result of the damage. We were incredibly fortunate to have him for another 16years before his heart finally gave up
Really, that was so fortunate tour dad got to survive that long... how weak we are really
@@deepapatricia I know. It was so hard watching him suffer from daily angina attacks and heart attacks due to the heart damage. But every day was a blessing with him.
@@shanieyoung4300 I admire that love of child and father, this for sure sustained him. God bless his soul and your heart for being good.
Having had chronic pulmonary embolisms, as well as DVT, but also having severe brain hemorrhaging, this is rather interesting. Both happened during a long coma, so I know about it, only by reading my medical records. I am now on Coumadin for life, starting in my mid 20’s.
Thank you for this video. I have a genetic condition called Antithrombin Deficiency Disorder where my blood clots more easily than normal. Seven years ago I had a massive bilateral pulmonary embolism that came without warning. I went to bed fine and woke up and my heart was racing. I had to fight to keep from blacking out. I honestly believed that was the day I would die. The right side of my heart is damaged from the pressure of the clots. Had the clots been just a few mm larger there would have been complete blockage of the pulmonary artery. I had a second pulmonary embolism again without warning a year after that. My left leg is permanently damaged from the multiple blood clots. I am on warfarin.
Could you guys make a video about ocular migraine?? There's not much information on that in the internet, so would be very helpful!
Obsessed with your channel!😊
Great suggestion! Jonathan will be doing a headache video very soon, so I'll let him know!
How often do you get these?
Once every year or so for me but it’s been a couple of years since my last one.
@@theanatomylab Thank you! You are the best!🥰
@@theanatomylab could you cover other types of migraines as well? I get vestibular ones, and there's really not much info available on those
@@craigsips8677 I had first two at the age of 13, and then other two recently(I'm 26), and the weird part is that I had them right after working out at the gym, so I'm super curious what causes them.

Thank you 🙏🏾 it helped me understand how my brother passed away. He was 34 years old in 2017 when he passed from a pulmonary embolism.
Good way:
Hemostasis:
Occurs during injury to arrest the excess loss of blood.
Blood contains blood platelets, thrombin proteins, fibrinogen. Once blood platelets gets struck, thrombin proteins react with fibrinogen to create fibrin which creates mesh on blood platelets which is actually blood clot in a natural way. This is called as fibrin mesh clot.
Bad way:
Mural Thrombosis, Embolism -- occurs at either veins or aorta.
Thrombosis - blood clotting without bleeding.
Smoking, birth control to avoid pregnancy, prolonged immobility causes blood clots to happen.
Types of Thrombus - Mural thrombus, Occlusive thrombus ( blood clots at heart )
Mural thrombus:
clots happens at the inside the wall of aorta , inside the chambers of heart.Mural thrombus can either be detached or stay that way forever.
Occlusive thrombus:
obstruction, blocking blood flow. Happens because of the prolonged immobility. Whenever natural blood flow is getting obstructed because of smaller blood vessel, it leads to occlusive thrombus. It can also happen when mural thrombus gets detached from heart and gets settled in leading blood vessels from heart which now becomes occlusive thrombus.
Embolus:
Whenever blood clots gets detached and travels through blood stream. Anything that is part of blood which obstructs natural blood flow is known as emboli. Ex: Fat, amniotic fluid, air in blood are the various emboli which causes blood clots. Area where blood flow is restricted because of emboli is known as embolism.
Embolism :
Venous Thrombo Embolism, Arterial Thrombosis Embolism.
Blood clots also happens at blood capillaries which is micro clots.
Deep Vein Thrombosis:
Blood clots that happens at the deeper blood veins is known deep vein thrombosis. Mostly happens at the pelvis area/legs in the deeper blood veins that is present at the center inner portion of thigh region. It can also happen in arms. Symptoms: pain, swellings, pain can increase when you put more weight.
If blood clots get detached from this region, clot travels towards heart which sets up pulmonary embolism. Sudden obstruction/occlusion of blood in pulmonary artery happens which goes back to heart. Returning blood from various body parts enters to heart through right ventricle which then flows to lungs.
Pulmonary Artery/Vein vs Heart Artery Vein
Pulmonary artery brings deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs, pulmonary vein - takes oxygenated blood away from lungs to heart. In terms of heart, artery - takes blood away from heart, vein - takes blood to heart.
Pulmonary Embolism
If blood clot happens at either of pulmonary artery or vein, this leads to lungs deprived of blood causing lungs not to work efficiently in oxygenating the blood. Chest pain and shortness of breath are the symptoms of pulmonary embolism. Because of inefficient work of lungs, heart get less amount of blood which in turn tries hard to pump more blood out of heart which ultimately leads to cardiac arrest/stress/strain on heart. Severe case of pulmonary embolism leads to cardiac arrest.
Deep Artery Thrombosis:
Blood clot happens at the deep arteries is known deep artery thrombosis.This causes damage to brain, ultimately stroke. Aorta from heart branches out to external or internal carotid artery which supplies blood to brain.
If Mural Thrombus gets detached from inner walls of aorta or inner chambers of heart, and gets settled in either carotid artery or cerebral arteries which causes stroke which is basically lack of blood, oxygen to brain tissues. If it is smaller thrombus, it can get into meningeal system causing serious damage to life.
Treatment:
Anticoagulants - commonly known as blood thinner - Will not break the existing blood clots but prevents more blood clot to happen.
Surgical treatment to remove blood clots in lungs is not recommended now-a-days. But it is commonly used to remove clots in arms and legs.

I've had my 2nd aortic valve operation and now on Warfarin to prevent blood clots so this was really interesting! The Warfarin is a pain since I can't even get a paper cut without bleeding all over but it prevents clotting
I hope you are doing fine👋
Weird, I've been on blood thinners for 30 years and never had any bleeding problems, but I think they aim for a higher INR for people who have had heart surgery than for people with clotting disorders. I'm supposed to be beween 2 and 3, I think the range goes up to 3.5 for people with heart problems.
@@Primalxbeast Yeah my INR level ranges between 2.5 and 3.5 and the amount of warfarin needs to change almost monthly due my inr levels changing all time! Which means weekly doctor visits :( I had my 2nd surgery at 26 so only been on it a couple years
@@Rachmaree And I thought monthly bloodwork was a pain.
4:55 bro i feel you on that, no matter how much bigger it is, it's also incomparably small in comparison to the actual universe or even the other structures inside it lik super clusters, individual galaxies, and nebulae.
My dad died because of Pulmonary embolism when I was 4 years old, he was working in China as a businessman for his company from Germany, it all first began when he fell asleep on the sofa with the AC blowing on his legs for hours, when he woke up he had intense pain and my mom brought him to the hospital where the doctors didn't know what was going on and said that they'll examine him the next day, my mom was worried because in China the hospitals differ vastly on quality, the hospitals that most people go to are mostly with bad/fake doctors that's also overpopulated, and this is one of them, because it was the nearest hospital my mom decided that it's better not to transfer to a better private hospital.
But the next day it was too late, my dad had died in the middle of the night because the blood clot had reached his lungs, my mom even saw the doctors reading a thick book on what to do because the doctor seem to have no idea on what's going on even though they could've easily saved my dad.
My mom wanted to file a lawsuit but decided it wasn't worth it, at most she'll get some compensation but it won't bring back my dad.
I hate Chinese hospitals where it's mostly filled with unworthy, uneducated and corrupt staff members.
It had nothing to do with the AC - it was already there
I love your channel. I’m not a doctor or nurse but I was a teacher. I was an anatomy and physiology teacher many moons ago.

Hello pretty how are you doing with your family?
Can you get pregnant when experiencing menses with heavy clots
These are so interesting to watch! I'm not pre-med but I like to educate myself (and potentially others) about how these proteins & compounds interact with our systems. I hope I can apply some of this stuff when I go to veterinary school!
I survived four simultaneous pulmonary embolisms due to unknown causes (two in each lobe of my lungs) in October 2019. I will be on anticoagulant medication for the rest of my days. See a doctor if you experience unexpected leg pain (with or without swelling). I had a complete blockage of my femoral vein (deep veins thrombosis behind my left knee) and developed the pulmonary embolisms six days later (parts of the clot in my leg likely went to my lungs after passing through my heart). My initial symptom was severe leg pain (cramp-like feeling) for no readily identifiable reason.
Hmmmm, behind the knee. Something about that. My knee and a p e I experienced several years ago. Thanks for your comment!
This is so fascinating. I knew roughly what blood clots were/what they did and I was familiar with the terms used but until watching this, I had never put the two together. I love learning about human biology and when I add more information to topics I already have a basic working knowledge of, it makes me so happy :)

I had DVT two years back..
Due to smoking ...
Iam still smoker....
But by watching this video..I quit smoking.....
Good explanation... thank you all doctors...
I was on blood thinners for over a year because if a DVT and was given the green light to stop taking them in April. A month later (last week), I'm in the hospital with DVTs in both legs and PEs in both lungs. Doctors suspect it's hormone related. No pain or swelling in my legs.
Oh my, I'm glad that you are alright. I was given the green light to stop my thinner three months age after a PE in March 2021. They never found out where the PE came from so I'm doing my best to think positive. I walk an hour a 5 days per week now and move around more at work. 🙏 God bless you with good health.
@@Sammiein Take a really good, high quality Omega-3 supplement! NOT one off the store shelves!
The minute when he said prolonged sitting position can cause blood clot....I woke up from my chair!😂
BTW...This is very informative video!😄
bro, i am always sitting here on my chair for hours and got sick, now i am scared!
I installed a break timer on my PC right after he started talking about prolonged sitting. I always heard people talking about how taking breaks is important, but hearing horror stories about what can happen if you don't is a *much* stronger motivator!
I had a right calf DVT as well as bilateral lower lobe segmental and subsegmental PE's last year. I was on Eliquis for 6 months. Oddly enough, I had no symptoms of a DVT. I went to the ER with chest pain and increased shortness of breath.
In 1965 my father and I were in a traffic accident which broke his jaw and left hip. He made it through the surgeries just fine but back then they didn't make you get up and move around like today. 10 days after the traffic incident a blood clot came from his hip which was fatal. I know all too well blood clots can be extremely dangerous. As for me, I had a broken collar bone and took out the windshield with the side of my head.
OMG. Sorry to hear that your dad developed a blood clot and passed away. I had a cousin who was hit hard in her pelvic area from a horse trailer hitch. She was fine after a couple weeks of feeling very sore there. Then one day soon after the incident she was home making dinner and went to take a bath while the food baked in the oven. She was found dead by her husband when he got home after work. It seems the hot bath she was sitting it had loosened a blood clot caused by being hit by the horse trailer a couple weeks before. She was a healthy 33 year old woman.
I had a blood clot in my arm after surgery. The IV caused an inflammation in my deep veins, what has triggerd a trombosis, not even mentioning the massive swelling in my arm. The blood thinners was a hell and my hormones was upset,. I had a really heavy period for 3 weeks and was running low on iron because of it.
Trombosis can happen everywhere at any given time..
I survived a PE without any medical assistance. My doctor said later that I was very lucky and that it must've been very small. The pain on my chest was a crushing pain, every small breath of air I pushed in was like 1000 knives. It was probably a small cloth dislodged from a meniscus repair surgery. This video is very educational, thanks.
You know what really hurts? Going to a comedy movie when you've been getting PEs for 3 months.
Would not advise.

I loved this video so much. In July of 2018 I survived a Saddle PE. I was in a room for observation my husband and Mom were there when the ER Dr. came in and said Don"t move! The last test they did was an Abd CT. It showed that part of the masive clot I had in my leg had broken free to create the Saddle PE, it was explained much later that this is usually found when an autopsyis performed. I spent 13 days in the hospital, I also had Addison's Disease that had not been diagnosed at that time. Your explanation was so clear and understandable. Thank you!
I recently had bi-lateral pulmonary embolism and was rushed into treatment with EKOS. This video really woke me up to how serious my problem was. It’s been suggested that a seatbelt injury from an auto accident could have caused trauma resulting in the formation of the clots. Wow…just wow, I’m thankful to be here today.
What if you regularly get clots during your period cycle? Are you predisposed to stokes and heart issues? Would being on birth control double your chances? 🤔
I think yes to a small extent to be safe. Bc pcos is a trigger for a worser COVID bout. Which is associated with micro clots. I also noticed more clots after having Covid. Nothing massive but i never had one before.
I had the same question about birth control when my doctor was questioning if I ever had thrombosis, he said it would be a problem, but he didn't out right said if taking the birth control would increase the risk for thrombosis. I'm still a little confused.
Look up estrogens roll in blood clots. Combined birth control CAN cause blood clots but it is not a guarantee
Sir, I am in std 11 right now and studying for giving my medical examination in 2024 , ... I have been following your channel since I was in 9th, ... Kind of obsessed by these videos.,❤️❤️
Thank you so much
I was absolutely convinced I had DVT recently. I've never actually had a serious blood clot but they are one of my biggest fears.
They you need to see a doctor. If you have one, it prob won’t just go away on its own. It might break off and travel up to your lungs or brain. You don’t want a clot there
" Anything traveling through the blood stream could be a Thrombosis"
My mind instantly went to Microplastics and the deck of cards we accumulate in out system. Nice that we never mentioned that .
Loved the video! 10/10
Def gonna both binge and use these videos for my practical nursing classes
i thought i was a healthy person until i stumble upon your channel. now im always scared about how i move how i sleep mostly things i eat.

Would be cool if humans had backup blood vessels, with valves that stayed closed when everything was normal, but then opened up as a new pathway when higher blood pressure or blockages were detected
This was super interesting. In 2020 I had a massive DVT and pulmonary embolism, they said it was due to my birth control. My leg was super swollen and purple when I woke up in the middle of the night. They did a surgery to remove the clot in my pelvis and leg. Was in the hospital for a week. It was intense, but thankful I’m fully recovered. No one really tells you how common this is with women on birth control. Pretty nuts.
Infertility pills are for population control, sometimes they kill the women...

After I had 2 really bad nose bleeds in the same day a blood clot came out of my nose and I didn't know what it was and got really scared and I couldn't find information on it besides this video, thank you!
My uncle died of a blood clot in his brain post surgery (a number of surgeries, actually, after a farming accident). Of course that's always a risk after major surgery, but it still caught us very of guard. It took literally seconds to go from recovering just fine to boom - gone. It's my new biggest fear.

I was thinking of strokes as my mum had a severe stroke in 1991 (they think maybe 2 affecting the left side of the brain- 1 at home, 1 in the ambulance on the way to the hospital). The doctors think that her stroke was probably caused by her smoking and having birth control pills but they weren't 100% sure!
between injection shots and birth control pills...which one is the scariest with someone who has had DVT before?
This was a hard one to watch. A pulmonary embolism took my father from me over 20 years ago. I was only 19. He broke his ankle had to wear a cast. He was not treated with anti coagulation medication although he had suffered a similar injury a few years prior and had suffered an embolism then too. I have always been fascinated by the human body and love your videos. This one helped me understand exactly what happened to my dad.
Been two years since my PE (right lower lobe) and DVT(left calf). Scary thing is I had none of the classic symptoms. My symptoms were mild cramping in my legs and a pain in my back which felt like a pulled muscle. What prompted me to go to urgent care was that my heart rate would be sky high when I walked around. I’m now on warfarin for life. They think it might have been the birth control but of course they are not certain even after being tested for every genetic condition. For everyone on anticoagulant carry something that says what anticoagulant you’re on just in case something happens and you can’t verbally communicate.
I have factor v leiden and had a blood clot in my right leg when I was 15 years old. I was hospitalized for 6 months due to my first Crohn’s disease flared. I wouldn’t have even known I had factor v Leiden if I never got that blood clot.
Years ago my mom was suffering from uterine fibroids and was bleeding heavily. Our doc put her on birth control so she wouldn't bleed over her trip to Hawaii. It caused a DVT in her calf, thankfully she recovered and got a hysterectomy to fix the excess bleeding.
I collapsed in a hospital hallway due to a pulmonary embolism(PE). I had an ACL reconstruction a week prior due to a knee hyperextension while playing in a college basketball game (Div 1 🙂). I was at the hospital getting my stitches removed when I complained of various symptoms, including darkness under my eyes. I was at the imaging department for a chest xray when I had collapsed.
I spent a week in the hospital and at first they stated my PE was simply due to my ACL reconstruction... but that changed a over the course of the week. Near the end of my stay in hospital, I underwent another scan of my lungs to check the clots. About 4 hours later I had about 5 doctors come in to my room. They seemed to be a little excited and suprised. They mentioned to me how the scan accidentally caught a portion of my adrenal glands and that they noticed they were both enlarged. They essentially found 2 pheochromocytomas. "Pheos" are tumors in adrenal glands that produce excessive adrenaline. After some testing it was found I was producing ~40x more adrenaline (epinephrine) than most people. It was found these tumors were malignant, and the cancer had spread to my thyroid. It was aslo found I have a condition called multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2. A year after undergoing a bilateral adrenalectomy and a thyroidectecomy, I was found to have a rare blood condition called polycythemia vera (PV). I now take lifelong steroids to replace the hormones I'm missing, as well as phlebotomies every two weeks to remove excess blood that can cause thick blood and clots from forming. I still workout, run, eat healthy and play basketball. That's my story. 🙂
There's a lot more to the story... but this is the extremely quick version. I left out the heart attacks and other events.
Verrry interesting! You should write a dang book! Or be a motivational speaker,.... or Something!😉😜
Bet this has become WAY MORE COMMON in the last 3 years.
Ahh Last year I had a DVT that went to my lungs causing a Pulmonary Embolism. I was fine and then the next second I literally couldn't breathe, I really thought I was going to die. It was by far the worst thing I have ever experienced, the pain and horror of gasping for literally every breath is indescribable. Thankfully I was able to get to the hospital quickly and the doctors figured it out quickly, I had a scan that showed multiple blood clots in my right lung, took a long time to recover. Please be careful if you are not moving for an extended amount of time because trust me you do not want to go through this.
My dad had [possibly- more likely two strokes] but definitely one major stroke in 2019- very close to when the [Plan]demic struck. He was totally paralyzed and needed a tracheotomy. He also contracted pneumonia while he was in the hospital. He could hardly whisper to get any message across to people. What actually took his life afterward- was an embolism in his lung. It still breaks my heart to know all this happened to him just before his death. Thank you very much for explaining this topic.
I work in a nursing home as a laundry aide, and it's very scary to see a resident be perfectly healthy at one point, but then pass away not long after from a blood clot.
I found out I have Factor Five Leiden when I got pneumonia which resulted in a pulmonary embolism while pregnant. I couldn’t breath. I was lucky to have survived. But pregnancy increases your risk of blood clotting. So when I get pregnant I have to inject myself with lovanox and take other medications to prevent miscarriage. Even those don’t work. After about 6 miscarriages I just stopped trying. 😒
I was coughing up multiple blood clots about 2 weeks ago, which was 6 days after I had a tonsillectomy. They are big blobs of blood and are actually so cool, like a super thick blob (the mesh clot). I like learning about the body and I wish I had more time to dissect and examine the clots, but I had to get to the ER to get an emergency surgery in the middle of the night to cauterize my throat. This video helps me understand how my body was trying to save me from bleeding to death. However, I was wondering why the blood clots couldn't seal up my throat wound and I had be recauterized through surgery? Is it because you can't apply pressure to the wound like you could with a cut on your arm or leg? Also, I stopped bleeding while I drove 30 minutes to the ER. Then I started coughing up more blood clots again when I got there! I guess more clots were forming while I was driving!
I get blood clots everyday for about a week once a month🤠
@Betty Amber I'm so sorry to hear that! When I was getting ready for emergency surgery, one of the last things the surgeon said was to possibly get some blood ready for a transfusion if my blood was low. Thank God I didn't need it! What happened to your friend, did he not make it back to the hospital in time? That is devastating.
@Betty Amber Was he haemophiliac?
@@arianator4ever97 i honestly wouldn't mind them if they didnt feel so... yucky.. while coming out LOL
yea i remember having a nose bleed and i titled my head back and pinched my nose. not a good idea and i felt blood coming up my throat turns out when i coughed it out it was a blood clot
Had extensive bilateral pulmonary embolisms in 2018 caused by birth control and a clotting disorder (antiphospholipid syndrome). Ended up making the right side of my heart fail. Was in the hospital for 27 days and was on life support for 5 days. I wish people were more educated on blood clots. Thank you for making this video!
Wow!
I have stage 4, non curable ovarian cancer. Back in December of 2022, I also caught Covid. Both of these conditions cause blood clots. I got a pulmonary embolism and was hospitalized for 12 days. Everyday, I worry about that blood clot and if I’m gonna get another one.
Definitely curoius to watch your video on strokes when it comes out, I have an uncle who had two different types of strokes, so he can't be on meds for either
My friend currently has more than a few blood clots in her lungs. It was caused by the birth control her mom forced her to be on- safe to say shes off it. She had to be in the hospital for a few days. What sucks even more is that she was given a scholarship for track and cross country in college but now she cant run too much or she feels like fainting. Running had always been her coping mechanism and escape. Its been a few months now and shes definitely stronger.
We make jokes now that if we scare her slightly she goes " oW my pulmonary embolism"
shes faking the ow dw dw
What birth control was she on?
If this mean anything... I am so proud of two of you... my God.
Thank you for all this lessons. First time I have watched your video was last year when dog bites me. I was afraid an searching about that and than I found your channel. This all is to cool. If I were student of medicine I would be the best one 🙃
Thank you for all. Best regards
I am 72 year-old and been suffering from Pulmonary Embolism from 2017 and I am using blood thinner since then. Thank for this video I am now clear about this illness and thanks that I am still alive
I don't know why, but the cadaver leg wearing a sock caught me off guard lol
