i get to have my last drain removed at 4 weeks

even though i am still draining about 17-20cc's i get to get my last drain removed. i think the time factor is part of it but not for sure. it's been in there a long time.  my local doc gets to remove this one also so that saves me 9 hours of driving.  yipppppeeeeee!!!!! also i went and bought two pair of pants yest one size 8 and the other a 10 and i am still swollen some.  i had to buy some for winter to last until i am down to whatever size i am going to get to and then count on the 10 lbs rebound or so (hopefully i won't).  getting the last drain out means i am that much closer to getting to hold my babies (dogs).  vick

Congrats on the drain coming out.
I can totally relate....I just had mine out on Monday.  How nice to feel free.

Just be careful with the babies......I'm still not letting my 4 legged baby jump on me yet.  Maybe if I put on pillow on my stomach first then I might try it.

Congratulations I hear the drains can be a bit of a b*tch....
