Did anyone else have to wear compression stockings in the hospital?

I will have to. I'm having surgery on Monday 8/7 and was told I would need to have them on all the time, except when walking.

Exactley. Make sure they put them back on you after you get back from using the restroom. You can get blood clots of you don't wear them and make sure you breath into that device they give you, a spirometer? It helps get the anithesia out of your lungs,And maked sure you cough after each use

The Spirometer and I aren't great friends but it's a necessary evil.
