What Could Cause A Blood Clot At The Left Of The Tooth?

Hi! I woke up with a blood clot behind my very left tooth in the back of my mouth. I had a mouthful of blood. The tooth doesn't hurt but the blood is surrounding it. I am diabetic and taking heart medicine and blood thinner. Would you be able to tell me what is happening? Thank you! GT
