My husband is on Eliquis, a blood thinner because there was a tiny clot in his leg. Are blood clots common for people with prostate cancer? I’m not talking about the urine. It doesn’t have blood clots, but it is very red; like he’s peeing blood. I am checking him for pain during urination and taking his temp for infection. As soon as it hits 98, I will call the doctor for an antibiotic and take him on, since his normal temp is 97. He’s already had two bad experiences with UTI, one was after they left the foley in too long. But for now, he is feeling well.
Anyway, he walks every day and eats well. He does exercises with bands to improve his balance.
I’m just wondering if anyone else has experienced blood clots in the legs, and if so, do they know what actually caused them?
Thank you.
He is walking
