Is there a list of things to bring to the hospital?
hi, some people said to bring chap stick (i like carmex) slippers, housecoat, something loose to wear home, bru****ook my own toothbrush. i know there are other suggestions, but by the time i was ready to go, i just wanted to get out of there. i am always very groggy after being put to sleep, it lasts for days, so i wanted peace and quiet. do have a date? what hosp?
Here is a list I found on the main site a long time ago and I copied it and saved it for when I get to have surgery, just tweak it for your personal preference:
Chap Stick
Lotion
Toothbrush
Toothpaste
Hairbrush
Shampoo
Pillow
Hair scrunchies or barrettes if needed
Socks
Books/magazines to read
Nightgown
Robe
Slippers
Comfortable clothes to go home in
Send me your email address and I will email you the files I have saved over the past year concerning this surgery.

Slippers
Robe
pjama bottoms to slip on under your gown for walking.
chapstick
your own bottled water just in case you need it.
good smelling lotion to make you feel good and powder
I have to bring room spray for odors--I am used to my candles at home
Hard candy or lozenges for sore throat from intubation
Hope this helps
