My Dr. says I should be able to leave the same day. My surgery is Wed @ 7:30. He said he will do the swallow text before I leave. It all depends on how I feel and how he feels at the time. Ins. covers an overnight stay or two. I am trying to decide if I should just tell him I want to stay.. or just go home. Guess we will see at the time. I have used this surgeon for stomach surgery before for reflux and am very confident in him.

I was sleeved on 9/18 and released 9/19, no drain, did leak test with x-ray on 9/19, had liquids afterwards and then pureed food, then sent home.
