I’m not joking, I had another pulmonary embolism. So, I’m taking my medicine every day, taking care of myself every day and watching it.” Chris Bosh’s first pulmonary embolism occurred in February 2015, when a clot formed in one of his legs and traveled to a lung, leading to a multiday hospitalization.
