What Causes Left Sided Pain In The Lungs While On Blood Thinners?
I want to know what might be causing pain in my lung area especially on left side. I have had pulmonary emblosims sp. twice now in the the past and am on blood thinners. I also have had pleuresy sp. and this doesn t feel like either one. I just had a CT Scan of my lungs to check for cancer and the test was negative, thank goodness. But still having discomfort.

Hello,
We have to rule out possible cardiac causes like angina. Consult a cardiologist and get an ECG to rule out cardiac causes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
