Had Lung Havest May 13th Right Side Center Lobe And

Had lung havest May 13th right side center lobe and bottom right and left the process was good but ended up with an air leak the doctor tubes and air pump then sent home with a portable without sucsion a week' later I become short of breath so I call to talk to the survey iwent in to the hospital and I was admitted for blood clots both lungs currently taking warifan 1.25ml a day then 2.5 on Sunday I cough up dark blood for the first couple weeks and now I'm coughing up a yellow green mucus and it tastes burn't we wanted to see if the air leak would heal three months have passed the doctor recommended a muscle flap so back to surgery the plastic surgeon skin graft the muscles from the right side of the abdominal muscles and tissue for the flap to weave over lower ribs then cut out one rib in the upper ribcage then attach the flap to the lung to stop the air leak worked well no more leak I get back home within ten days I have to return to the hospital and they find blood clots in both lungs latly I've been gaining weight but when I cough it tastes burn't and once in awhile when I'm breathing out.
The only thing I can think of it might have to do with medication
