I just received a call yesterday that my surgery is in 10 days!!!! Can anyone advise what I want to pack for the hospital (2-3 day stay)?

pjs, reading material, cell phone, your own toiletries, comfortable loose clothing to wear home,

yup,that's it...I needed my own toiletries and my Kindle. Didn't even bring my purse.

I brought tons of stuff.

Never used anything but my phone.

They really have everything you need.

I also took a bunch a stuff and didn't use anything but my phone, charger, pj bottoms, and Chapstick

Lots of luck!

Surgery date 7/25/12

All of the above I also bought listerine strips, head scarf, phone charger

Chapstick. Chapstick chapstick chapstick!

Comfortable clothes, phone and some shoes you can slip on for waking the halls.

Biotene was my best friend, Had surgery at 10:30 am on Monday didn't get to drink anything until Tuesday at 2:30. My was like dust. It was my best friend and chap-stick. Otherwise you wont need a whole lot.

Pj and cell phone they give you the rest

And charger for phone or tablet. Lip balm. Slippers. Your own pillow for sleep and for comfort on the ride home. Someone said the johnnies were more comfortable in the hospital than pj's but a robe to cover your backside when you walk the halls is a must. I've started packing my bag, too. Surgery Thursday! :-)

Only things I took was my cell phone and charger, iPad and charger, Chapstick, socks, underwear, sweatpants and pads/tampons just incase and my pillow. I wore comfy loose fitting clothes to the hospital and wore them home. Didn't even use my iPad. I was either sleeping or walking.
