Comfy pants are a must and I personally brought yoga socks the ones they give you at the hospital are too thin and don't keep you feet warm and I brought my own pillow that was priceless really

I’m 6 days post-op and I can tell you that the essentials for me were my robe (I got to put it on as soon as I went to my room for recovery and it was a life saver. Felt like I wasn’t flashing anyone and felt warm bc my room was a little cold), chapstick, toothbrush and definitely mouthwash!!! I wasn’t allowed to drink anything so getting to brush my teeth and using mouthwash was a lifesaver.

A fierce healing itch is pretty typical a week out, I had a similar experience and it eventually calmed down. But it's pretty intense for a while there, so I feel for you.
Try putting an ice pack on the itchy spots. That helped me like nothing else.

Hi everyone! I am new here and so happy to be here! I am so close to getting my surgery date with only a few more thing to complete. One of which is my pre-surgery weight loss. With the holidays I completely fell off the wagon and set it on fire! But, I am back on track now...for the most part! I am looking for someone or a group someone can point me to where I can connect with someone on a daily basis to help keep me accountable! Strength in numbers, right? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Xoxo

Animal85 reacted to KatFight in Blood thinner shot to prevent clots
Hi. I had sleeve surgery on 12/28/17. My BMI was in the 50s so I have to take Lovenox. I was in the hospital for 22 hours so I had 1 shot there. I was prescribed 1 shot daily for 30 days. I was nervous about giving them to myself so my husband was giving them to me until one day when we forgot to do it at the scheduled time. I remembered a little while later and had to inject myself. It wasn't so bad. Since then, I've injected myself a handful of times. You'll be okay.
