Hi, My Mother Developed 2 Blot Clots In Her Lung
Hi,
My mother developed 2 blot clots in her lung as a result of flying from Australia to Malta (Europe). This occurred on the 19th September. She is now on the drug rivaroxaban and has been advised that she can fly back to Australia on the 16th October. I understand that it takes many months to dissolve the clots and am concerned that flying again on the 16th October is dangerous and too soon. Do you have any opinions on this?
