The tubes were in for three days why i dont know was this normal nope not normal i was the only one. do i understand what happened no. What i remember is being told id have to keep it in for awhile and that i had ryn and some other surgery since i dont have gallbladder im thinking hital hernia repair. will find out on monday was to out of it to ?? it till my visiting home nurse told me i had two surgerys. i just kept begging for the tube to come out . But all in all feeling ok walked this morning then walked on tread mill then worked in the yard slowly. its the shoulder pain thats driving me crazy gas i guess. thanks for everyones well wishes.

Are you talking about a drainage tube.  i had mine removed at my 1 week appt.  It is a pain to deal with but better than all that drainage on a sponge pad or a gauze pad.  I was changing them 3 times a day at first even with the drainage tube in.

no i wish i was i have the jb tube still in this went from my throat to some were and out my nose and then had a small drain hanging out my nose hurt bad. i guess know one knows about this and all the other women on the floor didnt have one when they woke up but i did.i had two women besides me in my room they left within a day and i was still there still had tube hanging out my nose and hurting my throat.

Glad to hear things "basically" went well and good for you getting up and moving!!! Leave it to you to get all the extras on your surgery. I'm sure there was a good reason for the tube but I can sure understand that it is painful. Hopefully it'll be out soon and now you are on your way to a new thinner you! I'm so happy for you!!!

Lol dont make me laugh it hurts. You put a smile on my face and your right leave it to me to have weird stuff go one. And im finding extras all over infected staples that have to come out packing thats small but i just today let my nurse show it to me. I guess i didnt realize id have staples else id of told the doctor every time i have had them they got infected. Loretta
