mrscherry2010 14 Posted March 28, 2015 With my pending surgery coming up I want to be prepared.... For the people who have been through it already, what were some of the things you bought to be prepared? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shan5311 36 Posted March 28, 2015 I am almost 2 weeks post-op. The must haves for me were a mouth spray for the incredibly dry mouth I had!!! It was horrible!! That spray saved me!! Chapstick was also a must for the same reason. I also was very glad I brought done clothes to wear. After the catheter came out, was nice to walk the halls in clothes- I just felt more 'normal' lol Good luck with everything!!! You will do great !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IcanMakeit 1,318 Posted March 28, 2015 Cell phone and charger, Kindle or iPad with charger, a real robe for walking in the hall. The hospital will provide pretty much everything else you need. You could bring your own facial wash, if there's one you really like. I just used plain Water on my face and the hospital-provided liquid soap for my wash-up. I was only in the hospital one night.
