I have date and questions?

I finaly have my surgery date but now I have tons of question..
What do I take to the Hospital? What can't I take?  can we have a Lap top?
what supplaments should I have ready at home and simce I'm staying in a hotel for a week what should I have on hand?
What vitamins should I have? Sould I ask for pain meds ahead of time so I don't have to stop at the pharmacey on my way home?
Anything anyone can think of would be apreciated

Hi Michelle, Your surgeon shouldlet you know what vitamins he wants you to take. For banding generally include a multivitamin and calcium supplement. For bypass, it is a multivitamin, calcium citrate and B12 supplement. All vitamins must be chewable or liquid. Get your pain med prescription filled the same day you are discharged. You should be able to have a lap top in your room. Have noncarbonated liquids available while you are in the hotel. Follow your diet guidelines given to you by your surgeon. Good luck. Mona
