Home or Stayed Local??? Started by: Jay Roe

If you live more than 1 hour away then you need to stay local. I am in Preston in April but staying in hospital overnight.

You can pay to be a day case and either go home if you are less than 1 hour away or stay in a hotel but I have paid extra to be an overnight case, so I am staying in hospital overnight.

oh really, so wish I could do that but they said no I must be within 1 hour and I like 2hrs 15 mins from hosp.

And we got to Preston in a hour and half it was meant to be be 2hr 15 but if ya put ya foot down you can save some time :p xx

It’s the risk you take isn’t it chick, I felt absolutely fine the staff at Preston were quite shocked how well I came round from the general I was ready to go like an hour after lol! I was pretty confident nothing was going to happen so I took the risk and went home & it payed of!
Its worth staying in for the peace and quite tho like you say the staff are amazing there!!
Good luck xx

I had my operation at Preston and stayed at the Ibis hotel which a few people had recommended it was great, so close by exactly what you paid for which wasn’t much. If looking into booking a hotel i totally recommend that one girls 🙂 xx

I live half an hour away from Preston and had mine yesterday. The car journey home I could feel every bump! I did and still do have quite a bit of pain in my right boob the nurses had to give me tramadol cos the co-codamol wasn’t touching it xx. Personally from my experience I would see how u are cos u don’t kno what ur pain will be like when u get brought round. If u feel ok then maybe drive home. If not book into the hotel. I’m sure there will be space or a laterooms place somewhere if u googled it xx

i travelled home after mine, i live about an hour from Highgate and it’s straight down the motorway so not too far if anything had gone wrong 🙂 xx
