Hi I wanted to know how long is the hospital stay because they told me 2 days but I see some say they were released the next day.

I was supposed to stay one night and be released the next day. However, I opted to stay an extra night due to how horrible I felt due to my gas pains.

One full night, discharged late afternoon. Could not wait to get home.

I was scheduled for 2 but ended up staying for 3 nights. I was very nauseated and couldn't keep anything down

I spent one night and was discharged mid-morning the next day. I have heard everything from a same-day discharge to one night to two nights. YMMV.

I stayed two nights due to the nausea and vomiting.

I stayed two nights due to nausea and mild dehydration. I was sleeping so much that I wasn't getting in enough fluids. My surgeon threatened me with a third night, and that was the push I needed to start drinking more.

I stayed three nights due to the pain, low oxygen, sleepy bladder, and my inability to drink 40 oz in a day.

My surgeon keeps eveyone at least 1 night, sometimes 2.

There is a large surgery group in Dallas that releases it's patients the same day as surgery.

One night and released the next day. The key is to get up and walk (or shuffle) because this will help with the gas pains that inevitably come after surgery. Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle.

I stayed 1 night and was discharged late the next afternoon

I was released the same day. Surgery at 8:30, home by 2pm.

One night and released by noon the next day

Two nights in hospital. This was to ensure pain was controllable, that i could go to the toilet myself and also do a swallow test x-ray to ensure no ruptures or leakage.

I had my sleeve done, my gall bladder out and a hernia repair. I was supposed to stay one night but stayed 2 due to a snow storm. I could have gone home after one but I am secretly happy I was there the extra night. I could have managed at home since I opted not to take any narcotic pain medication but it was nice to have help getting out of bed if I needed it.
