Did you stay overnight?

I had my surgery at about 8:00 am and was home by 2 or 3:00 that afternoon. I was glad to be home. Yes, I was sore, but glad to be in my own chair and bed. I was sore for about a week but the more I walked the better I got.

Good luck to you

I had surgery at 1:30 p.m.; left hospital at 5:45 p.m. Took Loratab twice that night; liquid tylenol the next day, no pain meds since. I was driving on the 2nd day; went to group support meeting across the county by myself on day 4 post op. Was able to eat real food 11 days out. No pain, except a little where the port incision is. No restrictions on the part of my doctor.

Wow! Thanks for all the replies! It's amazing how different everyone's experience is. I think I'll ask him to let me stay over if possible, just to have a night without kids screaming and chasing each other around the house, lol. Did any of you have problems going up and down the stairs at all???

I had no problems with the stairs after surgery, but I was moving slow.
