Recommended Posts

Just wondering, how many nights did you spend in the hospital for surgery?

Thanks

I stayed 2, I think the average is about 2 night, but I also thinks it depends on your doctor and how well you progress after surgery

I stayed two because I was a revision patient. A friend of mine with the same doctor had the sleeve also and was a first time weight loss surgery patient spent one. It depends on your doctor and how you feel the next day after surgery.

Good luck with your upcoming surgery.

1 night. I was outta there at 7:30 the next morning, and anxious to go home. 1 night seems to work just fine for me, though having a call button with a nurse available for all your needs surely is a nice feature.

I had my mom which was amazing but after the third day of her not letting me do anything I kicked her out! Lol... I was very lucky to have such great support

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
