Hello dear
Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly .
* This does not seem to be only due to blood clots in the lungs , there may
be so many different issues for the same .
* The condition must be revealed in some of the tests either x-ray chest ,
pulmonary function test , CT scan or else .
* Recommended to consult with all details of the reports as scanned
attachment .
Hope this will help you for sure .
Regards .
