I think it's inevitable that cases where the patient was released too early will increase.

I had been awake for almost an hour when I was released.
On an interesting side note, for the first 20 minutes after I woke up I spoke only spanish to my wife and the nurse. I could understand english fine but just couldn't figure out how to speak it. English is my native language, spanish was the second language I learned.
