Drain I hate them

Wow 3 weeks has gone since surgery. Things are going well. I hate this drain!!! Hate it. The PS says that my fluid numbers need to be below 30 ml for 2 consecutive 24 hour periods. Well for the past week it's been at 30 with the occasional 20.
Trying to find balance of being active and doing to much is a difficult balance for me. I feel good but want to get back to normal.
Because of this drain my pubic area and upper thighs are very swollen. Swell hell is horrible.

2 weeks post op

Over all doing pretty good! Went out with friends for a 3 hours last night and my poor pubic area was so swollen and sore. Over all I was up to much. I was able to get a drain out today!!!! Not a issue easy peasy!! No discomfort with the removal. Here are some updated pictures.

This is tough

I'm having a rough day. I'm sure this is part of the healing process. I feel fat bloated over all uncomfortable. My period started today and I hate my drains. Having a pad on and these drains is no where ideal. Tuesday when we were coming home from my post op check their was a guy in the ditch with a person doing CPR on him. I am also trained to do CPR so I stopped and helped. I think I'm still sore from that. Plus today I see his obit in the paper. I feel bad for that.
I took pics today but feel embarrassed about posting them. It's just hard to be positive today. Sorry.
