If you are not staying overnight I don't believe you need much! I did take everyones advice and bring chapstick...you will definitely need that. Also, maybe a small travel pillow for your stomach for the drive home. I went ahead and brought my Gas X strips with me and started on them when I got out. Loose fitting clothes and shoes to slip into! That's literally all I brought.

I just brought myself and my husband...I was too miserable to need anything,..I was home by the afternoon and was attached to my heating pad for the next week

I just brought loose clothes and the hospital sent me home with a pillow for the ride. Only other thing I brought was my cpap machine. I stayed one night.

Mine was out patient. Surgery was at 1230p and I was out of there at 7p

I brought my drivers license which my husband carried.... nothing else. They gave me socks...

I would bring all the above mentioned but I hardly used any of it! I must of thought I was going on vacation over night but my experience and my room mates was the same that we felt terrible!!! I just wanted to sleep! I asked the nurse If I was suppose to walk around and she said she doesn't push the patients to walk! And to boot my hospital REFUSED to let us drink until about 30 mins before I was released ! I was allowed to swab my mouth!!!! I know everyone was different but I couldn't wait to leave!!! The nurses were loud!! The room was cold and they came every hour to check vitals! I really hope you have a better experience!!! I ran into my hospital roomie at the doctors office and I asked her about her experience and she felt the same. No tv just sleep! Good luck to you!!!!!!!

Loose clothes, slip on tennis shoes, and a pillow and blanket for the ride home. Mine was outpatient so I was only there a few hours. If you stay overnight the hospital will supply you with a toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, slipper socks, and a robe, ect.. The more you bring the bigger the pain of trying to remember it all when you leave.

liquid acetomenophin (sp). I can't take pain killers and pain was easily controlled with the liquid.

I packed an overnite bag, but was doing well enough that evening that the doctor let me go home the same day.
