daniotra 298 Posted July 19, 2016 All I needed was clean undies, Chapstick, and my outfit for going home. I do recommend bringing a phone charger, just in case. I didn't need mine. My hospital actually provided Chapstick, but I would have been sad if I had left it. I had trouble concentrating to read, so I didn't read my book at all. For women, Aunt Flo loves to show up during times of stress. The hospital will happily get you a pad if you need one, but bring your own if you prefer.

daniotra 298 Posted July 19, 2016 You also need ID, insurance card, and a way to pay your copayment if needed. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
healthier&happier4life 86 Posted July 22, 2016 Ditto on the chap stick! That's the one thing I used a lot!! The nurse gave me lozenges because my throat actually hurt more than my stomach. Apparently the entubation can irritate your throat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They where very inexpensive so I grabbed them. The spay tastes like you ate toothpaste lol. The lozenges I think are orange which sondes more pleasant.

Clarevoyant 347 Posted July 22, 2016 So now that I am on the other side the things I found invaluable were: Phone and charger (lots of loved ones checking in which was nice) Biotene spray Chapstick Earbuds (there was a woman across the hall moaning all night and calling for her daughter. Very sad but between the morphine and ear buds she sounded much further away) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
