From reading previous post others suggest you bring chap stick and Gas X dissolve strips. Good Luck with your surgery.

I've heard a lot of people say a heating pad. Don't hospitals have them?

On my list is ear plugs and eye mask, my own pillow, Chapstick, headphones and charger for my phone/iPod.

What all the above said and I suggest checking the post in this thread "What do you need for your surgery" for more helpful suggestions. Pack light, you won't need much. :)

I brought a change of clothes, my iPhone and a charger. I didn't need much, between sleeping, walking, drinking and visitors I didn't gave time for much else. Best wishes :)

As I glanced past this, I thought it said, "pack a light lunch." LOL

Slippers and ties for your hair. Maybe mouthwash.

I REALLY need to get my eyes checked... I thought this one said, "strippers." Eesh!

Gas strips, robe, slippers, tooth brush, cell phone charger, portable vaporizer. (Sometimes nurses are jerks and try to cut off pain meds after one day.)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
