Heavy Bleeding With Big Clots After Surgical Abortion. Medical Attention Required?

I had a surgical abortion one week ago. At first, my bleeding was normal, but today I went to the bathroom and I passed a clot golf ball maybe a little bigger then the toilet turned really dark red. Now I'm bleeding super heavy. My two week follow up appointment isn't until Friday. Should I wait until my appointment or call the office tomorrow? Or should I go to the emergency room.

Hi,
From history it appears that some product of conception might remained there in the uterus or there might be some infection.
Go to ER and get examined.
Ultra sound will give good clue about your problem.
Ok and take care.
