Must Haves - Pre-Surgery

[IamBeauti 4]

I have searched high and low for a list of the various things I will need pre-surgery. I see everyone has a list of diffrent things but they never mention why and where to purchase them. Can someone please provide a list of the MUST HAVES items a person will need before surgery and where you purchase them from.

I and many other people recommend gas-x strips. They will do wonders for you. I'm sure you can get them at any pharmacy.

Right now I'm going through the steps to be approved first. I just finished my lab work and then I see my PCP on the 28th for results, sleep apena results and to ask more questions as to the next steps. Congrats! on the surgery I hope everything went well on Monday.
