surgery in four days

I'm having surgery in 4 days, do I need to buy anything for my hospital stay?

There are TONS of topics about this.
You'll want a pair of sweatpants or PJ bottoms (The ladies advise a very soft bra if you feel you can wear one).
Lip Balm and Dry Mouth spray are very helpful when you come out of surgery.
Some slippers for when you have to walk around.
Your phone, charger and maybe a very long cable.
A pillow from home (for extra comfort and for the ride home to put between you and the belt)
I brought a book and never touched it.

Ear plugs and a blindfold were nice to have as well, wards can get noisy at night.

Congrats and good luck with your journey!

They sell it at any pharmacy, you don't need a huge bottle either, you can find small "breath freshener sized" versions.

I am too. I'm nervous that I'll be a failure. My surgery date is the 11th. As far as what to bring, just normal hospital stuff. Some people recommended gas pills, dry mouth mouthwash, comfy clothes, stuff like that!

peace of mind if you can find it on sale anywhere.

The ladies seem to have a list of must haves - like chapstick and a robe and extra clothes but for me if didn't want to see my butt checks close you eyes

grats and good luck hope you have a great recovery
