Glad to hear you're doing ok! My surgeon plans to keep me for just one day as well, I get the feeling that's not too uncommon. Sorry about not being to lie down, hopefully you can graduate from the recliner to the bed soon!

I don't think it is the lying down part, it is using my stomach muscles to sit back up LOL.. I might try it tonight. We shall see!! Good luck on your surgery and yeah I think you are right on the being more common to stay 24 hours. I have two friend who had surgery about 3 years ago, they were in for about a week or more. They were shocked I left so soon afterwards.
