Post op drain
Hi ladies
I'm 10 days post op after unilateral lat dorsi reconstruction. I've still got the drain in. I'm tired of disguising it in a bag when I go out. Still draining 70mls today. The volume is very...
It is really a drag isn't it. I haven't had reconstruction but had drains after my mastectomy and then again after axillary node dissection. I opted to use a bum bag. Obviously only worked with casual clothing but it held the drains, it wasn't attached to my clothes so bathroom stops were easy because the drains just stayed inplace in the bum bag on my waist. Good luck - seems like an eternity but you will be rid of them soon.
