Over the past week or so no matter what garment I use even the one my doctor gave me, I seem to collect fluid. It gets harder around the ribs and stomach. It seems like the compression garment is making more fluid. I'm confused. I went to Kaiser last week to get possibly drained & they did an ultrasound saying that they didn't need to drain the fluid and my body will take care of it. I'm still in a lot of pain and discomfort as well.
