What should I pack?

[acm22_ 58]

I am away in college and will be coming home tomorrow & I will be staying home for a week before I return to school.

I will be home for almost a week & a half.

What are a good idea of things to take home with me and the hospital? Although I'll be there for one day..

A dress in case you don't tolerate the waist band of your pants. Charger for your phone. Clean undies for day going home. shoes to walk the halls. If you have any meds, bring them. That's it. Time goes fast. You phone and tv will occupy you.

1 day? See, i dont like the fact that for the same surgery, so many drs have so many different rules. My surgery was last tuesday at 7am. They repaired a small hernia while in there but his schedule was 1st day surgery, iv fluids only, and lots of walking. 2nd day morning upper gi to make sure sleeve didnt leak, and i was then given 1oz cups of Water all day, lots of walking. 3rd day introduced juice, Jello plenty of walking. Home the next morning. And i appreciated the fact that he takes the time to introduce each step to make sure hes not sending you home to figure it out. Hell, 1 day may as well be a outpatient surgery. Youre not even taking anything by mouth the 1st day to make sure theres no leakage. But ok. Good luck

I was up walking to but did they not do a upper gi to make sure there was no leakage.? I dont care what anybody else say, im glad my dr took his time and make sure everything was tolerated.
