I've been making my list too. Things I have that you're missing are toothbrush/toothpaste, deodorant, hairbrush, phone/charger, and sleep mask (light bothers me when I'm trying to fall asleep)

Good luck to you!

Your own pillows and a blanket! I'm super picky about my pillows and room mine own, as for the blanket, I took my have super blanket, hospitals are cold in my opinion, and I was thrilled to have the extra warmth and softness of my own blanket!

Sleeping in the hospital is difficult. The staff woke me hourly to give me meds, take vitals, and check on me. The hospital staff was all wonderful and professional, but I didn't get much sleep.

I had my surgery on 1/30/2017, and I was so worried about what I needed to pack. The funny thing is, the only thing I used from what I brought was my own pillow and my ChapStick. My overnight bag stayed in the closet. It's weird but I found the hospital gown super comfy because it was loose. I had them bring a fan because I was super hot, which is weird because I am always cold. The only things I wanted was my super cushiony socks for walking and my ChapStick. Congratulations on your surgery and much success

BRING A BACK SCRATCHER!!! You can't bend or twist if you have an itch very easily. Best thing I brought was an extendable back scratcher. Good luck!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
