Think of me tomorrow and wish me luck, if you will please! At almost two weeks out, I had to have a drain inserted in my doctor's office due to pain and swelling around and especially on one side of my incision. The drain was in for 4 days and removed because it was no longer draining anything. My doc also put me on a round of Cipro, which I finished awhile ago. Today I am 4 weeks out and the swelling is still there and back with a vengeance... and so is the pain. I have this feeling that I'm going to get another drain tomorrow, which is fine, I guess....I really don't want to have surgery again to fix whatever this is. One side of my incision is really poofy and again, I'm back to taking Vicodin (crushed...because I ran out of Lortab!). Thanks for your well wishes as they are much appreciated! Chele
