Mine was 4 hours...

My actual surgery was 55 minutes. The whole process through recovery took about 2 hours.

I know mine was less than two and was in recovery for a while before my room.

My dr told my husband & I that it would take 2.5 hrs, they were also taking my gallbladder. When I finally really talked to my husband, he said it was almost 4 and the tracking board at the hospital never changed me to the recovery room. He said he was starting to get really worried when they finally called to tell him I was in my room. Here they found 2 hernias and repaired them as well.

My, surgery was 5.5 hour not including the prep or covery. It took 3 attempts to get enough lining to hold the staples. He said that he never saw or heard of it. Till me.

Mine was two hours from when they took me back.

How are you feeling

Good. The gas is bad though

What is the recovery room process like? How long are you there? Are you up quickly? Any requirements before they'll send you to a room?

I hate the recovery room!!

I was pretty much out until they took me to my room.
