6 weeks post LBL
Had my dr visit yesterday and the last drain tube still needs to stay in
It's draining 25 cc a day and he wants to see it way less. My Hubby says that everything happens for a reason so not to fret over it.
The wound I'm packing is healling nicely per the Dr. He says I'm packing it really well. I can tell it's starting to heal since the skin around it is getting hard. It's been one week since i started ;acking the wound.
The nacrotic area is getting smaller and the Dr. decided to let my body take care of it. I'm eating lots and lots of protein along with the shakes and my vitamins and I'm thinking it's helping.
I weighed my self and I've gone from 155 to 144 lbs, but I'm still swollen so everything pre surgery is tight. I'm waiting for my before pics from the Dr to post pics soon.

Sounds like you're doing really well! Everything DOES happen for a reason - if you're still draining that much then taking it out may not be such a good idea ^_^ at least he's not taking chances!!
Wishing you a happy and painless healing =)
