I had my bilateral mastectomy at Mayo Rochester. I was released about 6 hours after surgery and went back to the hotel my husband and I were staying in. I had a call the next morning from the surgeons assistant to see how I was doing. I was surprised how well I was doing after surgery, I had that paravertebral block also and all I needed was Tylenol and ibuprofen. Never took the opioids. I'm sure each case is different and hospitals have their own protocols but the surgeon's nurse told me that during the first year of the pandemic they couldn't keep women overnight in the hospital and it turned out patients had less infection, and they recovered faster and better when they were sent home the day of surgery. So unless there are issues present, patients are released that day of surgery. Sending love and healing wishes to you❤️
