How long did your surgery take? My mother asked the PA and she said about 3 hours. I'm guessing that's worst case scenario, cause I keep reading different amounts of time.

48 minutes total operating time. Puked my guts out in recovery for about an hour. Didn't completely "wake up" until 8 hours after. Worse feeling ever.
