Anyone else had surgery could you please answer this one for me. > of land Hi , You have nothing to worry about, the gowns are huge mine was very roomy and I could tie it very easily on the side. When I went into the amulatory area and was put in a room the nice nurse look at the gown laying on the bed and said " I am going to get you another gown, one that will be more confortable " . I stayed in that sucker until the next day I went home. I took my own stuff but didn't get to use it. No way to use it with the IV. Don't fret over small things like I did!!
