Question??
Just an update.. My TT was Monday. I came home Tuesday. I take a perc every four hours, antibiotic every six, and arnica twice a day.. I can get up and own by myself, and go potty.. I am feeling ok and was able to take a short trip to the post office today with my family. I was expecting to gain weight since I am swollen, but I am down two pounds today. My drains should come out Monday.
Oh, and my garment sucks! Lol.. I guess I am short waisted, so when it's zipped all the way up it's on my boobs! So I have to unzip it just a bit...
I am still loving life with my sleeve! Been maintaining at or below goal for over 4 years!

It's VERY normal...I had to keep a drainage sheet on each one of my drains...I had three, now I'm down to one and that thing is still draining at least 20 cc every 12 hours, but i think it should come out by Wed...I sure hope so...Be sure to post new pics of the new you..!!!

My LBL was 2 weeks and 2 days ago. I had 5 drains, and this past Monday, the surgeon removed my last drain! I guess just like our finger prints everyone is different with the number and time periods of needing the drains.
You sound like you are doing well. Good to get out of the house a little, we can loose track so easy after surgery. I made sure to have a special spot by our windows, so I could enjoy the sunshine.
Keep us updated on your progress,
