I Was Diagnosed With A DVT/Pulmonary Embolism On October 13.

I was diagnosed with a DVT/Pulmonary embolism on October 13. I was in the hospital and prescribed Xeralto (blood thinner) along with Alleve and Tecta. I stopped taking the Alleve and Tecta a few days ago as I have no more leg pain. I am continuing to take the Xeralto twice daily. I was told by the doctor that I have multiple clots in my legs.
About an hour ago I began to get severe pain, heaviness, and discomfort in my chest, neck and torso. It is getting worse. I was hoping it would subside. Could this be a heart attack?
