SunnyCalifornia Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hi All, For those of you who have had the plication surgery: how many days did you stay in TJ before and after the surgery? I am considering a revision of my band and wanted to know how long the adventure might take? I actually live in San Diego, about 20 minutes from the border, and wanted to know how many days is really required to be close to the facility? Thanks in advance!

CanuckGirl Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 I had surgery on Friday and spent the night in the hospital. Saturday night in the TJ hotel and left very early Sunday morning for a long flight home. I think the Doctors prefer if you stick around an extra day but it's not necessary. I felt great on Saturday, the day following surgery but not so hot Sunday morning. I think the drugs were affecting me on Saturday and wore off by Sunday. Since you live in SD I'm sure you're fine to go home a couple days after surgery. But my advice is to ask the doctors - they know best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
