This is a discussion on Take A Guess!! within the PRE-Operation LAP-BAND® Surgery Questions & Answers forums, part of the Basics for LAP-BAND® Surgery Beginners category; Hi guys
What do i need to take to hospital?
Im in for 2 days!
Nic...
Chapstick. I forgot to bring mine. My lips were so cracked and sore and they had me drink lemon flavored crystal light which totally burned. I couldn't wait to get home to use mine. Also make sure you fill your pain med prescription before hand. I forgot to do that also. My poor husband had to run out at night and get it filled.
Where something comfortable and loose. Slip on shoes, sweat pants that are not tight around the waste and an easy slip over the head shirt.... I 2nd the chapstick....
Bring a pillow for the ride home. if you get a bumpy ride or have to cough a pillow against the stomache for that port site helps a little.
