I've generally only been drained when I begged for it. I think for most

doctors, less trauma and invasion is more. Everything eventually drains and

goes down. I'd be willing to bet his doctor isn't going to make him do

anything he doesn't want to do.

I had a puffy delta of flesh above Mr. (you call him your

name, and I'll call him mine!). No fluid to speak of. PS said it

was lymph (or other drainage?--I forget which) accumulating, and that

it would go down in about six months when the lymphatic circulation

was re-established. Well, it's about nine months, and the puffiness

has subsided quite a bit, but there is still something puffy there.

However, it is mainly an issue of vanity, and I will never be

perfect, and I don't want to be re-cut for an adjustment.

FWIW,

Steve
