Hi @Hulos, I was out of surgery at 9.30 at night & up early morning for shower after mastectomy & 12 lymph nodes removed. I wore normal comfortable clothes too as there was a cafe downstairs so went there a lot & it was also good to be mobile so I got away with only 2 days of those horrible injections to stop blood clots. They gave me a bag to put my drains in so just put it over my shoulder & it wasn't too visible with a long cardigan. Best wishes for your surgery, another step forward!
