Follow up to original post. I went to the surgeon today and he has removed the drain! I'm so glad! I am also down 21 lbs since I seen him on September 2nd.

The doctor was aware and didn't seem concerned. The drainage was about 1oz or so a day. Didn't seem like much in the bulb. But the amount coming out around it has been extreme. I'm seeing my surgeon tomorrow and hoping he removes this this.

Hi everyone,
I am almost a week post op but I still have a drain. The drain has been leaking around the hose and not just into the bulb. So I have been having to pack it with gauze and tape and change the dressings twice a day or more if I leak through. Has anyone else dealt with this and How long till your surgeon removed the drain.
Thank You
