Thanks for putting this together!

A few things I've read about that I probably wouldn't have thought of:

An eye mask and ear plugs (wish I would have had them a few months ago during my hospital stay!!)

Slippers or slip on shoes to walk the hallway

A camera

Lotion, Shampoo, soap, deodorant, etc

Reading glasses

Phone charger

I'm getting the surgery in Mexico and I plan to bring some Water and food items with me for the night before. I don't want to have to worry about going out to get something to eat (I'll be by myself).

Hi Im new to this online support group and live in Ky but I have to travel to PA for my surgery, my first trip to meet my surgeon is on Oct 5, 2017 and I will get a surgery date then and also a recommendation as to the bypass or sleeve, very undecided which to ask for so going to wait for his suggestion, anyone out there able to add some light on their preference.
