Getting ready for Surgery

Any helpful Ideas or tips . For grtting ready for surgery?:sneaky::sad::crying:

Good luck and you will do well....

1. get some GasX strips and keep them with you.

2. Dont be afraid to ask for pain meds

3. make sure you have everything you need for post-op diet because you may not want to go out and get it afterwards

4. If the hospital gives you a foam wedge pillow and you like it, ask if you can keep it. They usually throw them away after one use and sleeping on it will help with the gas/reflux issues you might have.

Just follow the doc's instructions, don't try and eat food. Bring the pain meds home with you from the hosp, don't try and get them later. Have patience. Good luck!
