Hi deb thanks for your feedback!
The surgeon who did my op apparently doesnt leave a drain in for longer than 48 hrs - says it reduces risk of infection so I guess consequently thats why i have these large seromas!!
No Im not on any antibiotics at the moment - the wound is looking ptretty healthy so far so at least so I guess thats a positive.
I am going back to see the surgeon tomorrow for my path results, course of action and drainage of the seroma agin!!
Will see what he says!!
Thanks for your encouragement. I guess Im just a bit impatient - better work on that !!!
Hope you having a nice long weekend x
