Blood thinning injections after Prostatectomy

Hi Nick

I didn't have to have blood thinning injections after my op.  I was however told about the symptoms of blood clots and what to do if I experienced them.  I think in many cases now they only give you the injections to take if you are in what they consider a higher risk category.  I did have to wear the lovely stockings for a month though!

Hope all goes well for you

All the best

Dave

Hi Dave

funny as my clinical nurse came back to me today with exactly the same explanation as what you have put so feel more relaxed with it now

i have just read your Bio and pleased that your journey has gone well , I’m booked in on the 22nd so always good to see positive outcomes

thanks agin mate and all the very best

Hi Nick,

To be fair I thought it was standard to have them I've got a month's worth of them and I still have to wear those horrible stockings untill all injections have been given.

Thank you matey it does seem strange how treatment options differ
