I have been reading on this forum for the past few months...this is my first time posting. I am being banded tomorrow. Just want to make sure i have everything i will need at home post OP...and what i should take with to hospital. HELP...I AM SO NERVOUS!

The only thing I took with me to the hospital was my ID, insurance card, and made sure my hubby had a little bit of cash to get me my prescription for the pain meds. Make sure you wear comfy, stretchy pants and a loose fitting shirt for comfort when you head home. At home, I suggest a heating pad for the gas pains and ice for your tummy (they gave me an ice pack at the hospital). Make sure you're stocked up on liquids, and have all your vitamins ready as well. Congrats and good luck!!

Ty...i think i have what I need. Just wanted to be sure. My nerves are really getting the best of me

You are gonna do great! I understand having the jitters. My surgery is scheduled for Thursday and I have noticed that I have to stay really close to these boards as they ease my mind and calm my jitters.

Good luck!
