Now I'm at home I get a lot of fluid build up, they were going to send me home with a drain in, but changed there minds. After 2 weeks home the fluid built up & they drained that, now I've got pockets of fluid under my arm & where the took the breast of.. has any one had the same? I have to change my top 3 or 4 times a day. Thanks in advance.
