No complications, but Dr had me stay in the hospital five days.

What was the reasoning, do you know? It seems that most are in and out in a day or two!

I had no complications and I stayed three days, two nights. I almost had to stay another night because I was having trouble getting much fluids and Protein in. I was able to get down a Protein Shake and convince my surgeon I would keep working on it at home.

I was one day. I actually wanted to stay another day but doc said i was fine to go since leak test was fine and I was able to hold liquid and Jello down. :P

He was worried I would become dehydrated if I went home.

No complications, weight about 244 age 29. Stayed 2 nights in the hospital. Glad I did too. I had 2 under 3 waiting for me at home. I got to sleep all day! 2 nights was covered in my self pay package, so I wanted to use them up
