Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If you think you have signs of pulmonary embolism, then do a chest x-ray. Do an ECG, blood test for ATT, PT, IN, Fibrinogen.

If you don't have reports suggestive of pulmonary embolism then you don't need to worry.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Rajat Basak
