Wow! I am pea green with envy. I didn't have robotic surgery and also had clean margins and nodes. But I had copius drainage after they removed the chest tube and even after they sent me home. So i really needed some help for a few days to change my dressing because i couldn't quite reach it.

Everyone has a different experience -

well, yup, I spent a week in the hospital on the tube, it was taken out Tuesday morning--2 days ago- with no drainage. I wasn't even to the hospital's front doors, i coughed and stuff sstarted pouring down my shirt and pants. Was still sent home. Sat here dazed for hours with the couch and pants soaked. 2 days home, still in extrmem pain. nerves are cut in my stomach so it hurts inside but can't feel the skin outside! begged for home aide..got none. Sent them pics yesterday and was told..let's wait and see what happens.......sure, got it!
