I did not. Each person is different I think

Drain for 3 days.

I did not but what I did have was this medicine ball that was attached to me. It stayed in for 5 days.

my surgeon said i will have a drain that will be removed before i leave the hospital, and that i will be in overnight only.

Surgery was August 4th. Still have a drain until later this week. Uncomfortable, but not painful.

Nope, no drain. Outpatient as well.

Drain in for my three days as an inpatient. Taken out just before discharge.

No drain for me and I wasn't outpatient either.

Nope no drain.

I am really surprised over the people who were done as outpatient!
