Just something comfy to go home in and chap stick is all I really used that I took. I wouldn't take a bunch of stuff you won't need. If your not sleeping you are up walking. Take care and keep us posted :-)

I'm scheduled for January 5th and been thinking what to pack also . I am just packing sweats , stretchie pants , big shirts and pjs . I was wondering if I need to pack all my vitamins that I have been taking ? Good luck

You need nothing. I brought all this stuff and never oppened the bag. You are drugged up and if you are not sleeping you are walking. You have an IV all the while you are there so even a robe can not be put on. You need like a pair of sandles with a hard sole to walk in. Slides that are easy to put on. That is it.

I took my toothbrush, socks and slippers. Something comfy to wear home. Brought my regular meds, but didn't take while there anyway. Maybe a book to read.

Good Luck
