My surgeon is 600 miles away so I've only had phone consult with nurse who is only now expressing concern. My port had been put in with a mesh so it was particularly difficult for the surgeon to remove. Site didn't start to drain for about 3 weeks post-op. It's been draining less and less over the last 3 weeks. I feel as if it's almost done. But am concerned about potential infection. No other signs (fever, nausea, etc). The site does not *appear* infected (redness, etc). Was told by the surgeons office that my local GP would not be of any help. Just curious if anyone else had draining this long after surgery.

Your comment surprises me. I don't remember drainage from any of the incision sites. They were taped and very clean looking when changing the dressing. Its been a few years now and hard to recall but I would have remembered that. I do know that I had lots of pain in my abdomen for about a week but the liquid pain killer helped with that and the pain finally faded away.

I would still go to GP. or nurse rather
