They must have done mine while i was out, cause they sure didn't afterwards.

I'm sure someone posted over the weekend that they were told they no longer do them.

Scary thought about having a leak.

 Dr Jules specifically told me they do a leak test while you are out and before they close you up. I was worried about leaks, too, so I made sure I asked beforehand.

I stand corrected.
Thanks,
They didn't mention it, so i assume it must have been done while i was out.
Good to know.

My mom and I both had our surgery Mar 24 in Guelph and we both had the leak test done before we were able to leave ontop of having it done before we were closed up.

 Who knows? Maybe Dr Reid doesn't do one? I don't think there's a set standard, is there?

Thank you all.
I asked Dr.Reed and he said yes he does a leak test, before He finishes.
I just really don't think this whole senario adds up.
I mean about 1 1/2 years post op she was well enough and would have had to have blood work done for plastics. and the 6-9 months later *someone* thinks she could have had a leak for 2 years that caused this.
Rumors I always get it confirmed never believe what I hear. Just was looking for your input.
Thank you all.
