Surgery was 3/19, Discharged 24 hours after RNY?

[Ab1986 14]

Hi everyone! I had surgery on Tuesday and was discharged yesterday at 5:25pm? Does that seem a little fast to anyone? I had RNY.

Any tips for making recovery easier?

No I had revision surgery on a Tuesday went home on Thursday

Alot of people go home 24 hrs after surgery if they are doing good

I have heard of one day in but the averge is two. I loved my heating pad during recovery. One thing I can say is do not push it. I got cocky about a week out and reinjured some of my 'wounds'. WOW would not wish that on anyone. I was already off of pain meds and was having an allergic reaction so I had to suffer through it. Also, take everything slow at first... eating, drinking, walking, exercise, etc.

good luck and congrats

Most people in my program go home the next day. They gave me the option to stay a second day and I took it, wanted to make sure I had no problems.

My drs office has told me 2 days and 2 nights.. I'm scheduled for a lapro RNY on a Monday morning and they said if all good I go home Wednesday.

Every program is different. I had surgery on a Thursday and was out of the hospital Sunday afternoon. That is the norm for my specific program. They like to watch us for at least 48 hours for leaks since that is a high prevalence time to get them and make sure we are tolerating full liquids.< /p>

I went home in 24 hours. I was walking laps around the nurses station. I have a severe aversion to hospitals tho and felt like I would heal better at home. And my dr concurred. Good luck and be sure and rest and sip your fluids. Walk as much as possible.

I had a revision stayed in three days. Home and in a recliner for 2,5 weeks with horrific pain, good as new week 3 now in week 6 everything I have eaten has been ok I'm listening to my body the most I have had is a little belching when I take that extra bite or drink my fluids to fast.. I didn't lose any weight for week five but realized its common and to not weigh more than once a week.
