redheadmom1103 10 Posted November 19, 2012 My surgery is Tuesday and I've been getting together what I think I'll need for my stay. Gas x strips, mouth spray, extension cord for cell charger, besides the normal toiletries. Am I forgetting anything? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cher 16 Posted November 19, 2012 Slippers and a robe. Most important to walk walk walk after surgery to get rid of the gas pain. Good luck to you, you don't need much at all. I was just sleeved on Monday. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vidalia 122 Posted November 19, 2012 If you are on a CPAP machine be sure and take it or they will send you back for it. Take some big, stretchy pants to wear home. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fallenangel2904 494 Posted November 19, 2012 I way over packed don't make my mistake lol because then I had this giant bag to lug home and I didn't even use 95 percent of it. I bought PJs, a robe, Shampoo and deodorant (though they had a shower in my room but I was in way too much pain to use it) tooth brush. Didn't use any of it. They have me a basket with tooth brush wash rags etc things like that. They give you socks. The only things I used from my bag where chap stick, a hair tie my phone and iPod charger. That was it. Don't over pack lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fallenangel2904 494 Posted November 19, 2012 Oh but I WISH I had packed an eye mask!!! I was in recovery for the first 24 hours and could have used a mask because it was so bright. Might be helpful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
