How long do you have to stay after a fill?

Hi guys, how long do you have to stay after a fill? I don't want to spend the extra money for a hotel and could book a flight back home the same day. Is that possible?

Ya, but the OCC recommends you stay one night to see if your fills OK. I buy the package and spend on night and fly home the next day.

Second fills and beyond, doc says to eat something that day to see if you can eat and drink OK.

I got my first fill scheduled for August the 12th and I wasnt told I had to stay the nite. Wonder why. I already booked my flight for the same day.

It is recommended that you stay 1 night at least just in case you need to be unfilled. Not sure what they charge for just the fill, but my fill, hotel and transportation was $279 and we made a weekend out it. Which for a weekend away somewhere is not a bad price.

Yeah, OCC wants to be sure that your fill is not too tight. You don't want to get all the way home and realize that you can't keep anything down.

Be safe, spend the night and enjoy the weekend.
