What's an abdominal binder? Never heard of that... I pulled a muscle on my right side but the pain's since gone away (thank goodness) and I think it was from rolling around in bed. I used to be a stomach sleeper but since the surgery have been sleeping on my back and sides. I hope to get back to stomach sleeping at some point but I'm dealing with not sleeping on my stomach for now.

Will the hospital give me one or will I have to purchase this? My surgery is tomorrow.

Here is the one I bought. It has helped me so much, especially when I get in and out of bed, or cough.

No you dont have to purchase it unless they told you. Every surgeon and hospital works differently.When I woke up from anesthesia I had mines on. Ask just incase hun.
