Anyone have the drain after their surgery and had problems with it? I've been reading where it's fairly new for surgeons to not use it... I'm scheduled for mine on November 2 and am getting a little nervous...

I had a drain. No problem at all. It didn't hurt at all. I didn’t enjoy dumping it 2x a day - but if it meant I was getting rid of fluids that were building up in my body, then I could live with it. I have heard of people who had it and people who did not. No worries there. I'm sure whatever your surgeon is suggesting isfine.

I had one for a week with no issues. I was also glad to know I wasn't piling up those nasty fluids in my body.
