What is the average length of hospital stay after surgery to convert VBG to RNY(open)

I just read a post from one of the surgeons and he told that patient that she was lucking being home 8 days after revision from VGB to RNY. I am scheduled for revision in October and now I am WORRIED! I understand that revisions are often more time consumming because of adhesions, but is the post op course that much worse than for a first time open RNY? Thanks.
