Guest guest Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Well Barb, I don't know your system, but you wouldn't have got sent home the day of surgery here. You would have had at least 2 nights after major surgery. Sounds a bit cruel to me. The decision to be discharged here is solely made by the surgeon or doctor. I had one night in hospital when I dislocated my hip, I was ready to go it felt great once it was back where it belonged. -- Re: I am New Here Something wrong with the system when they do not keep someone at least over night for a procedure like that.......I was still throwing up my first night after my THR.........BARB in Florida Re: I am New Here OMG you are a much braver person than I. I had that pain pump for the day of surgery and the following day and had 3 nights in hospital. I am 5 weeks out from that, having said that it was a revision.
