And super nervous.
My girlfriend went in for an operation today. The Doctor said it's a 3 hour operation. It's now been 5 and a half hours and she's still not out of the operating room. I don't know what's going on and I'm losing my mind.

Did they not have anyone tell you? That's highly unusual.
Best of luck man, let us know if it's okay.

I'm at home waiting for the kids to come home. My girlfriends mom just called and told me she wasn't out yet.

Just calm down, and try not to make yourself nauseous

It could be that just before they started the procedure, an emergency case came in and they needed extra staff in the ER operating rooms.
Delays waiting for surgery are unfortunately common.

relax, these things usually run long. If anything out of the ordinary were going on the doctor would have informed her mother,

update: it turned out there were complications during the operation. She had an asthma attack during the surgery and lost a bunch of blood so she had to get a transfusion. she seems ok now, she just got out of intensive care

Wow, that's really terrible, man. I'm glad to hear she made it through, though. You two will be in my thoughts.
