Just curious, for those of you who had lap RNY at MAMC, how long did you stay in the hospital?

I don't report until 10:15 am tomorrow and I am ready to leave, ha ha.  Seriously, I'd like to give my wife an idea of when she can pick me up.

Thanks,
Scott

Scott , I don't have an answer for you , as I was open . Usually they keep lap RNY's 24 hours , I believe . But , lots of good vibes heading your way .

Scott, I had my lap RNY on a Tuesday and came home on Thursday. A friend had hers on a Friday and went home on Monday. I think two days is the norm, barring no complications.

I had my surgery on a Friday and was home on Sunday!

Wishing you the best of luck with yours!!!

If I knew your last name I would stop by and say hi after your surgery because I have to go to Madigan for an ultrasound tomorrow.

GOOD LUCK!!!!

And welcome to the losers bench!

Thanks everyone, I appreciate your answers.

I am finishing up my last minute stuff.  I'll post when I get home in a couple of days.

Thanks again,

I know I'm a little late but I had to send you my best wishes for a smooth surgery.

I had surgery on the Monday and went home Wednesday.

In fact, I had surgery 1 year ago today, at MAMC, with the same doc as you!
