For what length of time will i have to stay in hospital for after a short procedure and general anesthetic. ?

Depends on procedure: If it's scheduled as an outpatient normally you will go to the recovery room for about one hour. If you have pain or emesis it might take longer to treat. The you will go to another area and leave shortly afterwards.
