Seroma
Hi girls,
Is it normal to have a Seroma after 4 months of surgery (double mastecomy) and have had it drained 13 times!?!?!
I'm worried that there is something wrong. My surgeon isn't too concern...

Hey Tanya
I feel that seroma's are fairly normal.
Personally I had a seroma which they tried to drain 3 times but were unable to produce any fluid. I think mine was more a haematoma(I think). Mine is now a hard lump but mine is totally different from yours I should think.
My lovely 80 year old neighbour had a double mastectomy and she had regular visits to the hospital to have the fluid removed and for her personally I don't think 13 would be far off what she was dealing with. But if you have any concerns then maybe get a second opinion now rather than later.
I hope it gets sorted for you soon as I know it is bad enough having surgery let alone the ongoing issues you are dealing with.
Good luck, lots of love,Mich xoxoxo
