It happens sadly, I had a blood clot in 2006 that traveled to my lung and the ER missed it and sent me home, I had been very sick in the weeks prior to it with first a kidney stone and infection and then pneumonia, I was pretty much bedridden and I was lucky when they found the clot the next morning and called me to come back in.

My best friends cousin wasnt so lucky she injured her knee, got short of breath on the plane coming home went to the ER, they were discharging her and as she was getting ready to go went to the bathroom and dropped dead she was 27 years old. I sometimes suspect in spite of what the autopsy on my SIL said about the enlarged heart and drugs in her system that based on the symptoms she had prior to her death she may have had a blood clot break loose, she was over 300 lbs and spent her days sitting around the house and doing nothing but drugs and eating.

It is scary for sure and I seem to think it happens more often than we realize because of today's lifestyles.
