Well I am 27 days PO YEAH!!! NOT!!! I didn't get my last drain out until I was PO 18 days, ok that was fine. After the annoying drain was removed I was doing so good and everything had healed up fine my scar looks really good. However, I went back to work on the 10th of this month and let me tell you I did more work on Monday than I did in my entire month being off work, and I work in an office. I was in so much pain on Monday so when I got home I ate a light meal and was getting ready to take my shower and so I was sitting in my robe and someone sent me a message on facebook, so I got my laptop and I was answering back. All of a sudden I feel a gush of water and I am like what the hell my water broke, then I was like wait a minute I AIN'T PREGNANT!! I go in my bathroom and there is water and blood dripping down my legs apparently I had a big blister by my incision that had apparently formed during the day and it had popped. The insane part is that it has been draining for 4 days now. When I went back to work my job informed me that my FMLA was not covered because I had a cosmetic procedure and I have no personal or vacation time remaining and they will not even let me go to the doctor to see what is wrong, so I have to wait until Saturday to go to the doctor. I am in pain all day and have to pop at least 5 Tylenol EX to make it through my shift. I spend my lunch breaks driving home to change my bandages. This is not fun, and I hope that no one else has to go through this. I will post again on Saturday after my doctor visit. Have a great day!!

I ended up making it to Tampa on Monday, however, they are only able to take one drain tube out at a time. I am at PO 13 and the drain that was left in has been draining extremely heavy and my doctor will not take it out until there is drainage of 30 or less in a 24hr period. I am extremely swollen and the drain is working overtime because I am up to 75 in a 24hr period. I was supposed to get it out today, but now I have to wait until Friday and if it is not draining at the 30 or below, I will not be able to go back to work next week. My boobs look like they are going to explode and I didn't have anything done to them at all. I don't know what to do!!!

Today I am 9 days PO, and I am very frustrated!! Both of my drains finally stopped draining under 30 in 24hrs so they are ready to come out and I think that I opened my incision and to top it off we just received a call that the schools are closed tomorrow due to the hurricane, so I am praying that the storm passes and that I will be able to get to the doctor's office in Tampa in the morning. Please pray for me ladies!!!!
