Asked By:FancyNanny

68 year old woman going in for lower body lift with Lipo November 8. I'm worried about going home same day. I've lost 100 pounds. I live alone 30 minute drive from the Drs surgery center. He requires I have an RN with me the first 12 hours ($1000). I'm hiring a caregiver 24/7 for $350 a day after the RN leaves. I've had knee and hip replacements and sleeve surgery all in the last 6 years. I remember having oxygen after surgery and breathing treatments. After sleeve I had a temporary spike in blood pressure and they kept me one night.
