Surgery

[Twist]

Anybody who has had gyno surgery have a drain? I have a drain with a little bag (ball more like it) hanging at my side and I have work; this is gonna be embarrassing. I also want to go jet skiing on friday and start doing physical activities but my doctor said the thing stays in till next week. Anybody have any personal experience with this? when can I resume activity? Doctors are always on the safe side (not that I am not against that, they just HAVE to say certain things to protect themselves legally) and I want a real answer. Please weigh in your thoughts and experiences.

BTW anybody who wants gyno surgery to be covered by insurance can say it hurts like hell (as mine really did) and they will cover it. I didn't know it was an option to have it covered but it was hurting real bad and I couldn't get rid of it with AIs so insurance took care of it. I only had it on my left side but had both done just in case... any chance that it will grow back or slim to none?

thanks guys

I'd say its just best to listen to your doctor.

Was the gyno pubertal or AAS related?

The drain is to allow excess fluid to be removed from the body. You want this as it lessens chance of infection. The ball actually is antibiotics. That's how they are doing it now. My brother had that after hernia surgery.

Definitely listen to your doctor as far as activity goes. A few weeks away from favorite activities is a small price to pay for a lifetime of good health.

you want your skin to bind back to your muscles the proper way so physical activity will inhibit this. when i had it done i couldnt lift for 2 weeks and no chest for a month. listen to the dr..

Also - the ball COULD contain time releasing pain meds.
