How Long Was Your Hospital Stay?



Recommended Posts

Hello! I am wondering how long all of you were in the hospital? I am due for 2-3 days. I want to get out of there asap!

I had surgery on Wednesday and Stayed until Sunday. Probably could have went home Saturday but hey if they weren't kicking me out I wasn't leaving. I know too many times in the past I have gotten home and immediately wished I was back at the hospital. This is major surgery and you do need to be able to walk, sip and maybe even have a bite or two. The first day is pretty much a blur with the pain meds, and then each day is better. A lot of people come home on that third day.

I'm fine now :) pain meds don't work on me unless they are given IV (and even then it's just mild relief) so I had a spinal block and then my bladder wouldn't wake up lol. I also had some nerve pain but it didn't last too long. I'm down 51 lbs from 11/26. I feel great, and as a total added bonus my skin is perfect again! ;)

Every one is different I was there from Dec 17 -28th with complications, unfortunately still dealing with them and possibly headed back there again . No surgery is set in stone Just remember go home when your ready.

Surgery was on Thursday, was able to come home Friday, but because I live 3 hours from the surgeon/hospital, Dr chose to keep me 1 extra day, just to be sure. So I was home by noon Saturday

Had surgery on a Monday got discharged that weds. Two weeks later had to go back into the hospital for 7 days due to uncontrollable vomiting (not everyone gets that). After I left that time I was great til I had a massive gall bladder attack 3 months later. Had to get my gall bladder out (common due to rapid weight loss) been amazing ever since

Just had my pre-op, and I will have to stay only 2 nights as long as there are no complications. He didn't anticipate any, but I guess you never know!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
