Daycase v’s Overnight Stay

Hi

Im looking to have my BA in November and will be payin my deposit to confirm the date next week.
I have heard that a day case is cheaper, but as i have never had a general anasthetic before, i dont know how my body will react.

Has anyone got any advise/thoughts/experiance on this?

Thanks

S,

I went as a day case and was fine. I have had sickness before with GA so asked for the anti sickness stuff and it worked. Everyone is different though. I woke up fine and ready to go home but it takes others longer. I don’t think i would have slept well if I had stayed overnight. It was definately worth saving

hi Sbear,
i was in the same position as u when i was chosing day or night just didnt no what to choose. i have never been under anasthetic either so i opt for overnight stay. this way i no im gna b looked after. the nurses come in and check on u all night and for me i think i would feel more comfortable staying overnight incase anything was to go wrong. i have also heard that day cases arent too bad either. the thing that swayed me was i will have to travel back to watford from highgate and i dont really think i will want that in case i in alot of pain. better off doin the travelling the next morning. hope this helps hun

Hi
I had a day case with under the muscle implants – I stayed within an hour of the hospital (which is a requirement) I was absoloutely fine and

i had an overnight stay and im glad i did. the nurse came in every few hours to check my blood pressure and see if i was ok, and also to give me meds throughout the night. id strongly recommend the overnight stay.

Hi All

Thankyou for your advise
I am going to see the surgeon on Friday, so see what he says. I am also looking to book the date and give deposit. When do you have to decide on whether to stay over night or just go for the day case? Is it when i book?

I think it probably will be as the price should depend on that, I poted for day stay mainly for the reason |I was saving

I’m in total agreement with Sara! Going for the Daycase meant a total discount of
