Drains?!?!

Hi ladies

I am having my BA on 26th August as a day case. My surgeon Mr Kazazzi apparently uses drains. Can you tell me, how long are the drains in for?

The drains are unusual for a daycase? I thought if a surgeon used drains (which hardly any of them dnt because they only meant to be used during major ops) then ud stop in overnight? Xx

Hey, I had Mr Kazzazi and had drains, although didnt feel them or care as I was so groggy after the anaesthetic! They didn’t hurt and got taken out the next morning (I was an overnight case but I have heard of day cases having them too). I hardly felt anything when they were taken out too x

Hey, I was a day case and I had drains. I come round about 2pm with drains in and they got taken out at 8pm x

I was also a day case and had early surgery, came round with drains in didn’t even know they were there and they Removed mine at about 5pm, all you feel is a little wiggle and a tug when they take them out they’re tiny holes and they’re bandaged over afterwards, no pain I’d just describe it as a weird sensation. I had Nightmares about tubes going in and out and it’s really not that bad!!xx

i was a day case and also had drains, they were painful to remove but so quick once its done you dont feel any pain really

It only takes a second each side for them to come out, was a weird sensation, but not really painful!!! You’ll be fine xx

Thanks all for replying. It looks like even if I do have to have them, they won’t be painful x

Gunna ask a rly. Blonde question but most of u are use to me by now lol if u need to go a wee and uhave drains what do u do weal them in with ya ?? I would be scared incase I pulled it out ??? Xxx

The drains are long tubes and at the bottom of them are two small containers when I went to te loo I carried them in with me and put them on the floor, then carried them back to bed with me and my partner and the nurse held them and the tubes while I got positioned, don’t worry about them hun I was having nightmares about them pre op and after my op I was that out of it due to GA that I never really acknowledged them being in! Xxx

Thanks huni I was reading this nd started freacking out , lol xxx

I asked mr k if I would have them and he said he does put them in sometimes but other times he doesn’t, he said usually the bigger you go the more likely you’ll need them. I have said I don’t really fancy it because I’m a bit of a wimp and he said its really just an extra precaution xx

I’m having drains to ,I’m not to worried about them . ) You be fine hun x
