JP Drainage
Hello everyone. I had VSG surgery on Thursday and I'm home today. Overall, I feel well -- not able to run marathons, but up and walking, sips when at all possible.
I do have a BIG question though. When my doc came in today my JP drain was completely full. He decided to send me home with it. At the current time, I'm having to drain it every couple of hours. Sometimes I get 75 ml of bright red liquid, other times it's about 60 mls with a yucky orange/brown color.
With the bright red color, do I have anything to be concerned about?
