One night stay thoughts

Hi all,  I am going in for a mastectomy, reconstruction and symmetry reduction and lift and was advised if all goes well I will only be staying over one night in hospital, Im wondering how you all felt about this experience and if you coped ok going home that early etc? Feeling a bit nervous about it but understand its out of my hands.

    Hi Tangerine​ , this is a great question and I am sure others can shed valuble insights about their experiences. You might like to check out our article on hospital stays for surgery, it can be typical that you would be there for just one night, some even just do a day surgery. Scroll down to the section "returning home" for more info :)
