I was 47 when I had surgery and diabetic. I stayed only 1 night after bypass.

I had Bypass and was released the next day.

Dr. did say from the beginning 2 days is normal stay.

I am 53 and diabetic. I stayed 2 nights.

I had some complications and stayed 5 nights

I converted from VSG to bypass (because of GERD) on 7/1. I spent 3 nights in the hospital. My dr said I could go home after 2 but for a variety of reasons I chose to stay the extra night

I'm having my VSG done on December 23, so I really want to be out of the hospital and with my family, even if I'm passed out. I don't want them stressed that I'm in the hospital on Christmas eve (our big celebration...Italian-American here!). I need to stay positive that my surgery will go well so I can go home the next day. Fingers crossed!
