Two days but I felt like I was ready to go home after the first day.

My surgery was at 8am and I was out at 8-9pm the next day. They said I would have left a bit earlier but my potassium was high so they kept me around a few more hours.

My surgery was on @ 7:15 a.m. Monday, June 20th, and I was discharged late afternoon Wednesday. Ask your surgeon about this.

I had surgery on a Wednesday at 10am. I didn't have any pain meds or anything during surgery so they pumped me full of them at the end. Took about 18 hours for me to come out of anesthesia. Got a really good nap in :-)

I would have gone home Friday, but I had a UTI, so I got iv antibiotics, and was cleared to go home Saturday.

I would ask your surgeon what the average time is, and then prepare for an extra day or two for anything unseen happening. Good luck!
