Quantcast

I've heard how a lot of surgeries now let patients walk out in less than 24 hours, is that safe?

    It really depends on what kind you are having.

    I mean something major like heart surgery, or a shunt revision(if you're familiar with that), or something big like that.

    I had surgery on my head(now watch the liberals make fun of me) and they got me out of there 24 hr. after surgery. I discovered I had a bacterial infection which brought me back in for three more weeks.

    Oof... not good at all! Yeah, I can see how you'd be hesitant to put yourself at their mercy after something like that. I sure wish you luck with it, though. Sounds scary.

    It's not that I'm hesitant to go there anymore, I just think they should have kept me longer and made sure everything was cool.

    Yeah, I had two heart procedures and a gallbladder removal-- home the next day. Granted, I was a bit sore after the gallbladder thing, but they give you meds to prevent blood clots and so forth. If you're in decent health overall, it doesn't seem to be a strain.

    Amazing, what they've done in just the past decade. :O)

    I don't trust it.
