A member asked:
Do you have to stay in the hospital for a night after getting your appendix removed for chronic appendicitis?

Anytime you have major surgery in a hospital, you should stay for observation in case of complications or any other problems that could arise. It is for your best interest as well as the hospitals. If any goes wrong your in the right place.
