#ICanbee Patient Stories

A diagnosis of a blood clot can be a shock and extremely frightening. Feeling worried, alone and wondering why, or what the future might now hold, is very normal. Knowing that you are not alone, can make such a difference. The experiences below have been shared by individuals who have been diagnosed with a blood clot or lost a loved one due to a pulmonary embolism. They hope that by sharing their own experiences will help others and increase awareness of the impact of thrombosis.

If you would like to offer your support by recording and sharing your account, please email [email protected].

As part of National Thrombosis Week 2025 we are sharing individual accounts sent to us to help raise awareness. Blood clots can affect anyone, but knowing the risks and symptoms can save lives. Let’s Talk Clots and start the conversation.
