Surgery results update

Well, I just returned from my 1 week check up with my doctor and to have (a little grossness) my drain tube removed that was carrying around hanging from a hole in the side of my abdomen. Ther was about 18 inches of the flexible plastic tube inside me. Funny story - as Dr. Quesada was about to begin the extraction, I asked him about how much tubing was inside me. He responded "Do you really want to know?" I replied "Well, since you put it that way, NO!" It all went well. everything looked good and normal from his perspective and I LOST ABOUT 15 LBS in less than 1 week. Way to go Bill!! :-)
