The night before my surgery

Feeling pretty excited. I've only been waiting for this day for the last 2 years. And it's finally here, haha. 

You guys have any tips for me?? What should I expect?  What should I bring with me to the hospital? 

Yay bamboo!  Good luck with your surgery!  My suggestions is to bring very little with you. I brought a few things none of which were needed. The only real things I used was my health card, phone with charger and my slippers for walking on the floors. That's it!  

Good luck tomorrow.  Relax. You got this.  It will be over before you know it

You must be sooo excited!!!

You don't need to bring a lot.  Cell phone/charger  (which i forgot) and I would suggest earphones to listen to music or something.  If your hospital experience is anything  like mine.....you don't get a lot of rest with all the noise and people coming in and out.

You will do great.  I maintain walking as soon as possible and as much as possible really helps the recovery process move along.  

Get ready for and exciting and crazy new world !!!! 

Good luck!!

I recommend ear plugs and a sleeping mask. My roommate had knee replacement surgery and was in a lot of pain. The nurses came in every 30 minutes to check on her. There were also a lot of elderly people on the floor and you could hear them yelling/crying. I was near the nurses station and they had one elderly woman who was in a wheelchair with a tray. She asked every person that walked by if they could let her out. She was very sweet and the nurses were very good with her.
