Drainage?!

Ok, I have looked through the library to make sure this hasn't been asked yet but to no avail. Someone please help me! I had my TT Aug 7th and I am so depressed right now! My surgeon took the drains out about a week post op - but now 2 times a week I have been going into his office and having a butterfly catheter inserted into my abdomen and having the excess fluid drained off. Its a lot too! Plus it is still a dark brown/red color with no signs of a light pink he is looking for. It becomes uncomfortable between visits and my stomach feels and looks like a waterbed. Anyone else experience this and what was your take on it!?
