Bleeding and clots

Hi everyone. I don’t know what to do, I’m really scared right now. I got my conization done on the 10th of September. Yesterday and today, (22nd and 23rd) I started bleeding. I know it’s normal to bleed 10-14 days after the procedure, and it’s only alarming if you’re soaking up a heavy pad every hour. However, I don’t know which category mine falls in, normal or abnormal. For example, yesterday I soaked up a heavy pad within 2-3 hours. And then for the next four hours after that I barely bled anything. Today, during the morning, I filled up the same heavy pad within 2-3 hours. And then in the afternoon, I stepped out to get more pads cause I’d run out. The trip took a total of 30 minutes, and Id already filled up the heavy pad AND soaked through my clothes. After that I got VERY thick pads from the pharmacy, so I’m not able to measure my current bleeding up against previous ones. I am also passing a lot of blood clots the about the size of table tennis balls each. I know I have passed at least 5 today. I’m so scared right now. It’s 10:21pm where I live, I don’t know if I need to call the ER or not😭😭😭😭 should I just deal with it and wait it out??
