I put my backscratcher in my bag at the last minute and I sure was glad I had it!  I woke up in recovery itching all over from the morphine.  They switched it to dilaudid and gave me benadryl, but I seriously used that back scratcher for a couple of days! I was also really glad to have my cell phone and charger.

I had a really large robe I bought on the 'Net.  This kept my butt from hanging out of the hospital gown as I walked up and down the corridors. Good luck.

If you are going to have drains or anything else, you might want to rethink the silk pjs.  I had the analgesic thing-y (Q somethingorother) act as a wick for blood.  I was so thankful that leak hit the hospital gown and not my pajamas.
