Is dyspepsia the same as Pulmonary Embolism?

Answer:
No. Dyspepsia means stomach upset, indigestion or "heartburn." Pulmonary embolism means a blood clot that gets stuck in a blood vessel in the lungs; typically the clot formed in the legs (deep venous thrombosis, or DVT), then broke free and travelled through veins until it got stuck in the small vessels in the lungs.
