So, I talked to my surgeons nurse and I was told that I will only stay in the hospital overnight unless there are complications. How many only stayed overnight?

Me. I personally prefer to get out of the hospital as soon as possible. Hospitals are full of nasty, drug-resistant germs. Plus, it's hard to rest well in the hospital - nurses are in and out of the room all the time.

I was in there for two nights, and I was more than ready to go home. My surgery was on a Thursday, and they let me go home on a Saturday afternoon. I got no rest while I was in there. Nurses constantly in and out checking one thing or another. I would get comfortable and fall asleep, and here they would come. LOL. My surgery was almost 10 years ago though. Friends of mine that have had it more recently only stayed overnight, and they were fine.
