4 nights. Apparently that is long compared to others.
I was so dehydrated after surgery that I had an IV connected the whole time. On day 2 even 2 IVs for a few hours.
I was so freaked out about the first week that this was a blessing for me. Had my own room and a TV and if anything was wrong I could call somebody.
I was glad. I would have freaked out at home alone.
