day case or overnight stay?xx

I’ve been told I’m having an overnight stay for my BA but I wasn’t given the choice this is just what I’ve been told by my pc. Which is better? Why do I need an overnight stay? What time would I be able to go home if I changed to a day case? Xxx

I had a day case and felt fine going home, u get to go home 4 hours after your opp, if your not well enough they keep u in anyway for no extra, id pay for a day case hun, 400 pound extra to spend on bras xx

reg7 – you’re going to highgate arn’t you? can I ask who your PC is hun? reason I ask is because I’m thinking of canx overnight stay now but am still debating whether I will regret that on the nearly 2hr drive home x

If u live 2 hours away u cant go home anyway hun, u gotta stay in a hotel witg 30 min of the hospital, I love overs 3 hours away and travelled home the day after my opp xx

I live 3 hrs away and had a day case, I booked a hotel but I felt fine so just went home instead of staying in a hotel x

If you’re having a more complicated op with longer general anaesthetic, uplift too for example, you would have to stay overnight. is this the case? xx

Missym83 yeahh I’m at highgate hun and my pc is Hollie Green. And as far as I know acorn88 I’m just having a straight forward BA no uplift of anything although I haven’t had my consultation with the surgeon yet I’m meeting him tomorrow so I guess I won’t know for sure until after xx

Nikki198324 like your thinkin extra 400 to spend on bras! lol… I’m gonna talk to my pc tomo about it xx

I told them i wanted a day case hun and booked into a local hotel, only 1.6 miles away for the night, it’s so much cheaper xx

If you’re going to highgate, I booked the Roseview Hotel on Queens Road xx

I was given the price of my BA and was never given the choice of an overnight stay or not. My pc just told me u stay at the hospital overnight! wish that I’d known the difference is £400!

reg7 – oh I’ve heard good things about Hollie, I thought you might have said Nadja Collins, she’s my PC. Was going to ask if she was ok about you canx the overnight stay as I haven’t canx mine yet.

Crampy – how much was the Roseview? was it ok? hhmmmm not sure I like the thought of a local hotel straight after op, I would worry that the sheets were dirty all night lol.

Aww thanks hun, I live only about 20-30mins away from the hospital will I be able to just go home or will I need to book hotel? Xx

awww am sure if your that close (reg7) you would be fine, I’m about an hour away(In Basingstoke) so though I may be cutting it fine so thought best to book one xxx

Roseview is £89.00, decided to get a twin room so my other half doesnt knock me or something in the night, the standard double is same price and small double a tenner cheaper, here’s the link below xxx

I live just over an hour away from the hospital, my friend drove me home, there was never any question of them making me stay, i was just advised to bring a cushion to put between me and the seatbelt. My pc even said there was no point booking overnight as if there were any issues they would not let me leave and i wouldn’t be charged extra xx

What sort of time do you leave with a day case?xx

Hiya reg7 i was a daycase at highgate my admission time was 9am i was fine to go back to the hotel at 1pm but my nurse wanted me to stay for my 3 course meal so left about 6ish emilyjane admission time was an hour before mine and she left half hour later but dont think she wanted to go she was to comfy haha xx

reg they allow you home around 4 hours after you opp as long as your ok xx

Ok thankyou ladies xx
