Wish me luck! so nervous but excited!! any last minute ideas of things to pack for the hospital stay?

Good luck to you. I'm sure you will do great! You won't need much for the hospital. Pack lightly. When you feel like it, check back in after surgery and let us know you're doing.

Just wanted to wish you the best of luck. I hope your surgery is uneventful and your recovery is speedy. Please keep us updated on your status as you are able.

As far as the packing, I have no suggestions as I have not had my surgery yet. But if you find something you wished you would have had, please let us know.

Again Best of luck hun. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

I will post back thanks guys somebody said on here heating pads for gas pain is a must and the gasX strips which I have so I will let you know how handy those things came for me.

Good luck tomorrow and sleep well tonight!!! Maybe some chamomile tea tonight? lol

Also, don't forget to take pics, weigh and measure yourself tonight! Please keep us posted and hopefully you will be able to go home Friday.

Oh yeah...someone suggested a sun dress so when you go home there is nothing tight around your waste.

good idea thank you!

Good luck and a speedy re overy

Wishing you great success tomorrow! Can wait to hear how things go.

several people said a small pillow. Something about holding it against your abdomen when moving around, getting up etc helps keep it from being painful. I haven't got mine yet.

heating pad ans gas-x

I really should be jotting all these suggestions down but alas, I'll end up asking when it's time for me to go in.

I want to say to you- YEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY It's your day! I LOVE seeing these posts. I can't wait to read updates. Prayers for you tonight

Good luck and please keep us updated!

Good Luck to you! Don't be nervous, just be excited because this will be one of the best decisions you have made. I am 5 months post-op and am loving the new me. Keep us posted on your jouney.

keep us posted

Yayy! How exciting for you!!! Good luck. You're gonna be a new you!

I had surgery last week and someone recommended biotene a mouth wash/spray that helps with dry mouth. That was a lifesaver since you can't drink for a while after surgery and my mouth was like the desert.

I also brought a heating pad and gasx chewables. The chewables were awful and I threw them up, I really think the best medicine to get the gas out is walking, walking, walking.

Good Luck! We'll be pulling for you!
