Hi all, due to have the op next Thursday all being well. Fluctuating between wanting it done ASAP and wanting to run away and hide. Main reason for post is practical advice for after, seems a bit silly but one concern is what can I comfortable wear after. At present when not at work I live in jeans and sweatshirts do I need to panic buy button up tops? Did anyone have any problem getting jumpers on after the first couple of days? Told you it was a silly question but just one of the things I wake up woofing about, at least this one I do something about.  Also how difficult is the drain bag thing to empty, is it a two person job. Did anyone wear the bra thing straight away?any practical advice is much needed.

thanks for listening
