my husband is being treated for a leg ulcer. the day after his compression bandage was applied he started to feel breathless walking a few yards but this would resolve when he rested. Admission to A&E -there saying likely a blood clot and have started him on Abixipan 10mgs twice a day while he awaits a CTPA. hes feeling very scared and has no enegry. he ooks pale and grey but once he rests colour comes back to his face. hes gone from a fit man working 46 hrs a week to a man that looks and acts as if he 100.

is this normal? when is he going to feel better. what else should i be doing to support him?
