What did you take to hospital?

[readyforachange66502 10]

I'm having RNY on 11/13. What are things I should take with me? My surgery is in another town and I will be alone so I just want to make sure I don't forget anything!

I took a bunch of stuff recommended by my Dr's office but the only things I used were my phone and charger, and a robe.

I've posted this before. It's based on a combined document that was created in the forums awhile back that I found. I don't think I'll bring everything on this list, but it gives me a good starting place. <<make sure you're logged in so you can open the attachment>>

My fav sweats & t shirt. A moisturizing sheet mask as I heard anesthesia dries your skin out. Tooth brush, charger phone and headphones. Wish I would have brought chap stick because my lips were so try.

I took all the usual things. I took 3 changes of nighties and undies. Didn't end up needing the nighties wore hospital gowns. I took shampoo/conditioner toothbrush toothpaste soap moisturising face wipes, moisturiser and lip balm. I found the face and lips got very dry. I also took my phone and charger. Little bit of cash which I didn't need because the hospital asks for $25 to cover all incidentals such as Wi-Fi, Pay TV newspaper etc. Other than the above the two other important things were non slip shoes or slippers and any current medications.

Chapstick, pony tail, glasses, phone charger, comfy stretchy pants to wear home post op. You won't be there long enough to really need much and I was too miserable to watch tv or read our anything.

Lip balm and Biotene spray were the most important things I took. I bought the Biotene the night before based on a recommendation here, and it was a lifesaver.

Robe, slippers, clean undies, lip gloss, phone and charger, loose clothes to wear home

I used nothing I brought, except a blanket from home. I was very tired a lot of the time and when I was up I tried to walk. Watched a lot of hgtv
