Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had a double mastectomy on Dec 3 and had both drains removed 2 weeks later..since then I have had weekly visits to have the fluid drained..probably upwards of 20-25 cc...My concern is that I went to get my radiation treatment plan last Friday Jan15th...and they were unable to do CT scan due to this fluid...I have a good died which include's a fair amount of protein....my next visit with the Radiologist is Jan 29th..so I have basically under two weeks to get this to normal...I have cut down on sodium intake as well....would a fluid pill help at this point?
