Op on Wednesday! Any last thoughts?

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I've got my op (Right resurf) on Wednesday at York District Hospital

in England. I think I've got everything prepared and my bag packed.

Wondered from your experiences whether there was anything you wished

you had taken to hospital with you or any last minute suggestions to

prepare? Being part of this group has been such a lifesaver so far

in getting to this stage. Thanks to all of you who have answered my

questions in the past.

Love,

Jen

Hi Jen

Two thoughts:

- Some throat pastilles, as my throat was sore after both ops cos of

the tube

- Some straws cos you'll need to drink, drink and drink after the op

to move the drugs through you (It saved me struggling up every time)

- A pillow for the journey home, to rest the wound against

All the best on Wednesday.

I would suggest earplugs ( hospitals are noisy) and good sleeping

pills, as you will be unable to sleep on any surface other than your

back for a while. Good luck on Wednesday, and keep us posted.
