Hi Poppy95 I developed large bilateral lung clots a few weeks after surgery - my surgeon seemed to say that it is a common side effect of the cancer? I was treated with an anti coagulant called Apixaban and I’m now on a low dosage for life as the specialist consultant was concerned that I had developed the clots while I was in hospital already having the blood thinning injections that they give you on the ward.
I have developed a blood clot on my liver as a result of chemo. I had blood thinning injections for a week and now am on the same tablets Karen mentions for between 3-6 months. Another scan will be done after three months to see how it’s doing / dispersing. Apparently one in five got blood clot as a side effect of chemo.
