Hello

I spent 3 days in the hospital. I have heard that most people spend 2 to 4 days. Best of luck.

I'm getting out today, had surgery Monday. My doctor keeps all his patients in for 2 nights. Other people on my floor left yesterday. Can't wait to get home.


I just had surgery on Monday and went home Tuesday

Bypass


Bypass here, everything went smoothly. Thank god no pain just soreness. Home now, going to walk around the block twice.

Glad all went well and hope to a speedy recovery. Get ready to start a great successful journey with lots of great health. ?

One and a half days.

I spent 4 days in the hospital because they couldn't get my nausea and pain under control.

I had bypass and went home after 4 days. My doctor had a crazy rule that, in order to go home, you had to be able to drink 1 liter of water in 8 hours...I failed the first 2 tests, but was able to pass it on the 4th day.

I had VSG. Surgery was early Thursday morning. Went home Friday afternoon.

Surgery first thing on a weds. morning, released mid morning on a Friday. Re-admitted the following week overnight for observation due to complications.
