Speaking of blood clots, I got a painful one (superficial, I believe)
in the calf of my leg following second round of AIM.  This is my first
blood clot ever.  Been drinking the recommended 3-4 quarts of water
per day last 6 weeks.  Should I drink more water?  What else would
prevent another of these clots?  (it happened during the "good" days
of chemo cycle when I was going to get caught up on chores -- no such
luck.)  The clot area (inflammed red area size of a dollar coin) is
starting to subside with no treatment.  Starting third round of AIM
tomorrow.
Best regards, Richard
