Ready2BHealthy 0 Posted February 1, 2010 Congratulations!!! Are you having your surgery in the States? I don't know what you should bring if you are going out of the country? I brought slippers, a robe, chapstick, large panties (you are so swollen afterwards), a bra that did not have underwire, and a comfortable outfit to wear home. I am pretty sure others will give you some other suggestions just in case I forgot something. You will do fine tomorrow. They kept telling me but I didn't hear them because I was so scared...but being on the other side...the sleeved side is wonderful!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*susan* 1,709 Posted February 1, 2010 Something else you might like to pack is a heating pad. I found it very soothing on both my tummy and back throughout the process. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marci 0 Posted February 1, 2010 Kind of scared but ready to go!!!! What should I bring with? Hey girl, I was thinking about you this morning. Good luck! Dr. Jay will take very good care of you. Make sure you have a small pillow to help you get up & down. Jodie, the nurse, will take excellent care of you for your overnight stay. She is the best nurse ever. I can't wait to hear how things go!! Good luck & I'll be praying for you. See you on the loser side!! :001_rolleyes: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

txaggiemom 0 Posted February 2, 2010 Motherof4 - I hope your surgery went well today. I am thinking of trying Dr. Jay. My appointment with the surgeon here is on Friday, but I am not sure how many sleeve surgeries he has done. I know he has done thousands of RNYs because everyone I know went to him. Do you know how many VSGs Dr. Jay has done? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
