2 week PS post-op f/u
I had my first post-op appt today w/ my plastic surgeon's office. Two of my drains were pulled (yeah!), and the two that are still draining a lot (70+ ccs per day) were left in place. The surgeon said everything looks good, my swelling is normal, and that the darker red drainage from my right arm is also perfectly normal.
It already feels better with 2 drains rather than 4, and I'm just happy that things are progressing normally, even if it's slower than I'd like. I have another appointment next Monday and I'm hoping at least one of the other drains will have slowed down enough to be pulled - would be great if they can both come out, but I'll just have to wait and see!
Anyway, that's my update - hope everyone is doing well!

Glad you are doing well! Brave girl for going through all that.
