My wife has a history of blood clots, we moved from Mich. to AZ. in 2010 since her very first visit with her doctors she had to all of them about her

A pulmonary embolism is an arterial emboli and it is not the same thing as a DVT.  That said, if your wife was hypercoagulable and she needed to be on anticoagulation, it is conceivable that the development of a pulmonary embolism could be found to be the result of negligence. the fact that multiple physicians decided to keep your wife off of anticoagulation suggests that if you have a case, it is going to be difficult. You need to speak to a local medical malpractice attorney who can investigate the case further after securing the medical records. These attorneys take cases on a contingency basis and usually provide free initial consultations. Depending on the outcome of your wife's care, a big question in your case will be whether it is financially viable.  Click here for an article discusses that issue. Please note that by attempting to answer your question, I am not acting as your attorney. I will do nothing further to protect or preserve your interests in the absence of any additional discussion with you about this matter. John Ratkowitz, Esq.
