Loose fitting clothes to wear home. A robe and some comfy shoes/slipper because you should do lots of walking. I always take my own pillow anywhere. Best of luck, keep us updated.

That's probably all you'll actually need in my opinion. I brought a book to read, and had my hubby keep my IPod with him, but didn't use either. I was either up walking the halls pushing the IV stand along, trying to get fluids in, or resting. Good luck!

Lol - think you may need more than just that!

As well as what the others have posted I have on mine stuff like face, hand and body cream, as I get really anxious when my skin dries out - which usually with air con'd rooms it does, so that will help me relax a bit more.

Why not start a good book before you go in, so you're already into it and don't have to concentrate too much....

If you're having to travel to your Dr then don't forget a wheelie bag or case, to make sure you don't have to carry anything.

Good luck

Kathy

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
