How Can DVT Along With Chest Pain And Abdominal Pain Be Treated?
My girlfriend gave birth to our daughter one week ago. They found a dvt blood clot. The past two days she got severe chest pain once, belly pain and earlier had been very hot. When we got home she got into an argument and then fell right asleep after. She woke 45 mins later shivering. Very unusual for her to fall asleep so quickly and then wake up freezing. She is usually always warm

Hello,
Deep vein thrombosis can lead pulmonary embolism lung condition. So, if needed rule out by D dimer investigation.
If pulmonary embolism not present, then local respiratory causes like pleursy, or bronchitis should be ruled out by chest x-ray. Consult a Pulmonologist for examination and further management plan decided.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
