When I first got my time it was 7:30 am told me to be there by 5:30 am but then they changed it to 9:15 be there by 7:15 I was glad that it was still early morning so I wouldn't have to fret all day. Good luck and keep us posted remember sip sip sip and walk walk walk we were told to walk at least 9 times for 5 mins the first few days.
Good Luck! I'm sure it will go well. I was patient 2 on my day on July 1! Surgery was about 10:15 a.m. had to be there at 9:00 to check-in. They will get you out of bed by 2 p.m. and have you walk the halls, I was surprised by the pain, not nearly as much as my other surgeries. But none of my other surgeries were laprascopic either, so there you go. Was able to get out of bed fairly easily and for someone nearly 60 and arthritic I was very pleased.
