    Hiya 

    I drained loads of fluid after my mastectomy they actually kept the drains in for 2 weeks after my surgery. One day i had to go back to the hospital for the bottle to be changed, never knew i could produce so much in a short period of time.

    I am building up again. I hope he will numb me next time

  • Hi , 

    Think I’ve said to you before I had fluid drained twice but I was told they want the fluid to find it’s own way. Did they give you any exercises to do?

    I’ve been suffering with Lymphoedema but have been to see a lymphoedema nurse and now a year on from surgery I have a compression sleeve.

    Hope this is sorted out for you quickly.
