I just want to thank you ALL for all the kind words. I re-read this thread several times getting re-encouraged.

The culture didn't grow anything over the weekend and I guess my "output" was minimal since I got the drain removed yesterday. Hope no one was in the neighboring room cuz I wasn't quiet. Getting a drain removed is a different experience. Anyhow I still have to take 6 horsepill antibiotics a day- what a chore that is... but I seem to have the trick down and the sooner I can get that done I can actually concentrate on the normal healing process. Normal being Water and Protein and getting into mushies. This whole thing has set me back by at least a week.

Ah but I have lost 20lbs --- so there is a silver lining in my set back

Prayers for you and best wishes on a speedy recovery. I had abscesses in my abdomen and pelvic cavity after my revision. I had drains placed, and had lots of antibiotics that helped resolve them 100%. It is painful and uncomfortable with the drains, and I hope you feel better soon.

I was wondering if you can describe the pain you had with the infection. I am having pain in my tummy and not sure if it is normal. It hurts mainly when I stand for long periods of time or when I go fron standing to sitting and vice versa. It is a burning and pulling pain that feels better when pressure is applied.

Thanks!

It hurt when I urinated, and it was just a nagging pain. I carried the majority of my weight in my abdomen, so I had a lot of "gravity" pain on my incisions, but I also had a lot of pain because I endured 2 major surgeries within 2 days, plus drain placement. So, I can't really recall the pain because it was general pain. I had gone in 4-5 days before and had bacteria in my urine so we thought it was just a UTI. The pain intensified, and I was having abdominal cramps, and felt horrible.

My advice is always if something doesn't "feel" right, seek medical treatment.
