Best of luck man. PEs are risky, but generally can be managed with some anticoagulation. Keep us posted!

Been there. Twice. DVTs are no fun at all, even got me kicked out of the Air Force. Best wishes to your brother.

I imagine he'll get a Heperin/TPA treatment. I hope he'll be fine. I've had the treatments several time, but mine clots were in my leg, not quite as serious as one in the heart, etc...
