The X-Ray was. Severe chest pains, shortness of breath and coughing with blood.

ER diagnosed Pneumonia. I was released after 5 hours.

Doctor the next day ordered a CT which revealed the culprit.

Multiple PE.

You lucked out. Still, there are too many X-rays ordered, especially for kids. They are ordered often to provide a chain of evidence to protect the doctor.
