shopping list help!!!!! and what to take to hospital?!

Have to agree - don't forget the chapstick!
I also took a spray mouthwash and some face wipes (no water needed - Kirkland brand I think), and regular wipes.  Even before I could get out of bed I felt clean.
I had downloaded a couple of e-books and audio books.  I couldn't concentrate on the e-books well, but listened to the audio books and some music.

Good luck with your surgery!

I took listerine pocket packs with me and I had a bad taste in my mouth the first day so they were a life saver, and I recommend GAS-X... It really helped relieve the gas pressure in my chest and belly from the lap procedure. I was also pretty sick(dry heaving, droolish) the first 2 days post op and the hospital ended up giving me malox type stuff which helped immensly!! Ill second the lip chap, fuzzy warm socks, and slip on shoes too
