I had my drain removed yesterday am. The nurse said after to use gause for a few days and allow it to close on it's own. Changing the gause for the second time just now and there's a little bit of pus where the wound had dried to the gause. I plan on calling the doc in the am but figured on asking here just to get the general consensus so I can sleep instead of panicking. thanks

Yes. I tried broth and jello and water. I'm afraid to try anything else.

I was discharged from the hospital yesterday and vomited all night long only to be readmitted to the er again this morning. They did a CT scan and everything was fine with the surgery. They gave me zofran and sent me home but I just vomited again. I have been following the diet to a tee, and since I got home with the vomiting I have been sticking to water to stay hydrated. Any thoughts? I don't want to go back to the er.

No. We're in Texas at Fort Hood.

My surgery date it's the same as yours and I'm so anxious. I had to go and find a comorbidity (I barely had sleep apnea) so I got my insurance to cover it. Good luck! I'm doing my pre op diet right now.
