Raven21 121 Posted November 7, 2012 I've heard a lot of people say a heating pad. Don't hospitals have them? On my list is ear plugs and eye mask, my own pillow, Chapstick, headphones and charger for my phone/iPod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amykins 202 Posted November 8, 2012 What all the above said and I suggest checking the post in this thread "What do you need for your surgery" for more helpful suggestions. Pack light, you won't need much. 1 iegal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ndaher30 1 Posted November 8, 2012 I brought a change of clothes, my iPhone and a charger. I didn't need much, between sleeping, walking, drinking and visitors I didn't gave time for much else. Best wishes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brookeco 37 Posted November 8, 2012 So far I only know to show up at the hospital with myself lol. Is there anything that I will need to bring with me? Gas strips, robe, slippers, tooth brush, cell phone charger, portable vaporizer. (Sometimes nurses are jerks and try to cut off pain meds after one day.)
