  • Blanket is a good idea, I'm flying back so I will have to ask the flight attendants I guess.

Sending good vibes mine is Feb 26, 2019. Sending you good vibes.. so my dr gave me a list of things to bring in my over night tote, slippers, loose clothes, gas x pills. (Chewabla) compression stockings if needed. Any medication I am taking. These were the important ones.

I brought a lot of stuff, but this is what I actually used:

  • Phone
  • Chapstick
  • Loose sweatpants

I think that's it! I brought other things that I thought I would use and never did. I wish that I had brought some dry mouth spray, but I didn't have time to go to the store before surgery to get it. It's also a good idea to bring a pillow or blanket to hold against your stomach on the drive home. I used a blanket from my hospital room—it was easier to hold it against my stomach than a pillow. You won't need as much stuff as you think. Good luck!
