Help very worried about drain bag
I had a gastric sleeve revision mini bypass four days ago I am still in the hospital in Tijuana Mexico I had more than normal bleeding so they gave me two drain bags instead of one, the next day they told me I’m still bleeding too much may need a second surgery and yesterday they said you might be OK and removed one of them because it got clear I’m supposed to be discharged in the morning on day five and I’m still bleeding over 100 mL a day in the one drain bag and its not clearing up at all.
I am scared to get on a plane tomorrow and still have internal bleeding if anybody experiences please let me know

Is anyone with you or are you alone?
Have you voiced your concerns to the surgeon?

This thread is old, and I hope the person who posted this is okay. Internal bleeding complaints should raise the alarm to nurses. I knew a handful of people whose conditions went critical because their cases and worries were downplayed.
