Visitors in the hospital?

[Chefrod2 4]

I am having my Sleeve Surgery on July 8th, 2013 and a few family members would like to come for a visit to see how I am. I wanted to know if it is a good Idea for them to see me or is it a bad Idea? Thanks

When I was in the hospital I didn't have visitors and was thankful for no visitors. I took advantage of the morphine drip and slept in a reclined position which helped with left in gases. I was very happy to go home on the 3rd morning.

It depends. Some people like to be left alone and people like me would rather have company.

I just had my hubby and oldest daughter with me. I know that I loved having them there because they encouraged me to get up and walk laps around the ward. It helped me tremendously because it got rid of the gas quickly, and because I walked so much the doctor said I didn't have to wear those horrible leg compression contraptions. It was also nice to have the company because when I am all doped up on pain killers I turn into a big talker with lots of energy. Weird but true. Lol good luck!

I wanted no visitors. My roommate had visitors who were so loud and inconsiderate. She was discharged that evening and left her TV on. i had to ask the housekeeper to turn it off. then I got a roommate during the night. her daughter came in early in the morning and talked loudly about nonsense...who came to see you..are the nurses mean... OMG I hardly slept at all. I was miserable in the hospital due to lack of sleep. Finally went home the next day and was able to start recovering!

Yes, it depends on your preference. Had my husband there the entire time (2 nights). No family because I didn't tell them. Didn't let my 2 best friends come see me as didn't want them to see me out of it. I think I probably would have tried to fight against my sleep trying to entertain them. So, I communicated with them via text.

Thank goodness I was in a private room. Very peaceful stay.
