Hospital bag

[bphillips329 2]

Hey all. My sleeve surgery is about a month away and want to know what I need to pack in my hospital bag (it is only a day surgery so will not be staying overnight) and what do I need to have ready for when I get home? Thanks!

I took waaaaay too much. All I wanted to do was sleep off the anesthetic. The only things I used was my stuffed bunny that I used for support of my IV arm, a few toiletries, and my robe. I used my Chapstick and my notepad and pen. That's about it. I wore loose clothing that I was going to put back on and wear home.

A stick so you can whack whoever wanders in at 3 am.

Seriously i wanted nothing so much as sleep and that just wouldn't happen.

If you do a search there are a ton of other threads about this.

You don't need much. Bring some entertainment and some loose comfy clothes for the ride home
