I'm not entirely sure how long I was under for at HRRH..I was barely awake for most of that day after I was under and I don't recall seeing a cloc****il I saw the hubby around 5:30pm.  I was last for surgery..1:30 but for whatever reason it was after 2:30 when i was brought into the OR. I would guess surgery was a couple hours and recovery after that..I briefly remember being wheeled down the hall up to my room and my roommate yapping at me..they couldn't find my hubby right away..I think I was in my room for about an hour before I woke up enough and questioned my nurse why he wasn't there.  Seemed like 5 mins to me, he said he felt like he waited forever!

My surgery was at 8 am.  Doc said he was booked for two hours but that it would prob only take one and a half.  I was out of surgery and in recovery and the doc spoke with my sister by 945.  Since I wasn't really awake I have no idea how long I stayed in recovery.  I do know I was in my room about an hour when m sister left cause she told e so lol she was gone by 1 pm

In Ottawa at the Civic I was told they allow three hours and that it should take no more. Mine was 1.5 hours in actuality. 

       

I run  The O.W.L.S.
