Getting breast reduction and a tummy tuck. Is it okay to fly back home with my Drains after 3 days of Surgery, I am only flying for 2 hrs. Also i will be getting a daily RN to come to my home (insurance covered), my sister will be helping to bath my son and run any errands. I can always fly back at a later day for post op appointments (always been a jet-setter and have worked at airport, so i know how to travel comfortably, stress free). Secondly can i use just pain pumps instead of pills.
