Drain Out!

After 2 weeks and 3 days my drain is finally out!   So glad to be done with that awful tubing.  There was some infection along the tubing - so now I will be on antibiotics for a week - but fingers crossed it will all be good.  The infection was causing pain on my right upper abdomen - so that should be clearing up now.

Best part is, since no indication of leak - I get to start my mushies!!!!  I am so happy to progress!

Even with a little bit of a bump, I love my sleeve! 

Hope everyone else is doing Mahvolously!

My drain was only in for 4 days, and I felt soooo much better after having it pulled. I cant imagine having that stupid thing in for 2 weeks! Ugh. Yay for the mushies!!

Hi,
I wore my drain for 1 week. Wonder why they keep your in for so long? Hope you get feeling better. God Bless

I know - it took a while for my amount to slow down enough - I guess I'm just juicy lucy!

Why was yours in for so long? I got mine out at day 4.

I'm a baby about pain and that pull he did hurt me. I was told deep breaths. Really I should've popped a pain killer before I went. It was like a stabbing menstrual cramp.

I still had too much fluid coming out for awhile.  HURT LIKE A MUG!  Took a pain pill - really didn't help!  Starting to really feel better now - couple of hours later!
