Second Surgery Yesterday from Drain

They removed my drain Tuesday after 4 weeks from the mastectomy / TE.

I was still at 50ml a day, but the tube was really looking icky so we relied it and hoped for the best.

By Thursday my foob was swollen and angry red and hot!! Had my paged at 6pm, he had me come in the next morning for surgery. Irrigated it, cultured some fluid, put in a new drain.

I think the uncomfort level is even higher this time. It's so irritating!!

I swear will I ever be rid of this stupid drain?
