My husband yesterday felt some sharp pain on the left side of his back. We went to ER, and they said that he has clots in his lungs. They are giving him blood thinners (injections), he did CT, Xray, there is no sign of blood clots coming from legs nor heart. How long does it take to get rid of clots? Should we ask for any other tests? Doctor is saying that he shoud stay in hospital for 5 days. Do you have any tips for us. Hope everyone is safe
