Yes, pulmonary embolism (PE) can be life-threatening and potentially fatal. It occurs when a blood clot travels to the lungs, blocking a blood vessel and disrupting blood flow. Symptoms can include sudden shortness of breath, chest pain, and coughing up blood. Prompt medical treatment is crucial to reduce the risk of serious complications or death.
