Just curious

I didn't think to ask was the surgery outpatient. Did anyone go home the same day?

[KimmieMarie 17]

Its not likely with the sleeve...its usually 1-3 days minimum. I was in for 2 and had absolutely no complications. Recovery was really quick too.

There are some people floating around here that were out patient... But I'd say most people stay in the hospital 2 days.

I think I've only read of one person who went home the same day -- I believe the majority of people at least stay over night. If there are other things 'fixed' during surgery, like band damage, or a hernia,or gallbladder removal, then it's possible there would be an extra day in hospital. And of course, if there are any complications they should keep you.

Just got home from the hospital ! Glad it was a 2day stay. Had some pain issues first night. Better the next day. Home now eating a popclicle .

I know in the seminar the doctor said the sooner you're released the faster you'll heal. But he never said if he keep you at least one night. I'm putting all my ducks.in a row. I'm hoping they'll be calling with a date for the first week of June

With my hospital it's 1-2 nights. I ended up being there 2 nights due to having a later surgery & not getting setup in my room until later. Normally I would have been scrambling to get out of there after 1 night, but honestly I was ok with the 2.

I checked in at 5:30am on a Monday and went home at 2pm Tuesday. No problems. They made sure I could keep down Protein Drink and go pee and let me go home.

Had procedure Wednesday morning EARlY and was back home before noon noon Thursday. Been home walking n sipping. Got in almost 30 minutes if walking today but still working on an 18 .5 oz bottle of pure leaf diet tea ....Monday I graduate to Protein Drinks but the weird on the street is I probably will only get thru one

My surgeon just keeps you for 23 hours, so overnight but technically outpatient.

I stayed 3 days, 2 nights. My copay for my surgery was not for an out patient procedure
