How long did everyone have to stay in the hospital after surgery? I'm trying to plan and be prepared. I'm having RNY on the 12th.

I had my surgery yesterday at 11. I didn't wake up until midnight. Was up in chair and walking at 4am. My only pain medication had been every 4 hours tylenol

Forgot to say the surgeon may release me tomorrow. In addition to rNY I apparently had a large hiatal hernia the he repaired. I'm really not that sore today

My surgeon required the same stay for all his patients, which is rather long in comparison to most I think. I was in there with two of my friends from Options classes (a Kaiser thing). We all had the RNY.

The first had hers on Monday and was out on Thursday. The second has hers on Tuesday and was out on Friday. I had mine on Wednesday and was out by Saturday. So that's 4 days, give or take.

I had my surgery on a Friday and the next day I was home

My surgery was on 8/22 and I would have gone home the 24th but we were having a problem controlling my nausea. Went home the 25 and quit taking pain meds - nausea went away as soon as I gave up the pain pills
