I'm wondering why my body is continuing to produce fluid without absorption and what to expect? (Photo)

My tummy tuck was 8/26, drains out after 2 weeks, less than 25cc per day. Less than a week later had to start drawing fluid from my abdomen area. He decided in 9/13 to take me back to OR to clean it all out, he put some stitches in the cavity, if I remember correctly, to help close the space and put drains back in. They are not slowing down at all and I'm at 5 weeks. To make matters worse, last week I learned that I have developed a blood clot in my groin and was started on Xarelto.
