For certain get a pedicure.  Get something that will last like a French polish.  Set up a tray by your recliner with the remote and space for your water and medication if you don't have little ones.  Wash the blankets on your bed and any throws your will use in the den.  Buy stool softeners so you can take one with each pain pill you take.  Pain pills are very constipating and you can't use your abs to help you go.  Avoid eating salty foods.  Expect to swell a lot.  Don't hesitate to take your pain medication on schedule.  You will do great!  Loris

Congrats!!!!!!!!
It's so funny that you posted this because my surgery (panni removal & TT only) is June 10th and I was just thinking yesterday....WHAT AM I GOING TO DO TO MAKE THESE 6 WEEKS PASS FASTER???... haha  At least on you only have a couple of days. I think you got some very good advise here (especially the pedicure!) so I'll just wish you good luck!! 
Can't wait to hear all about it!

Awesome news! I am on his schedule for Monday May 11. I also feel as though I have not planned or prepared as thouroughly as I did for my bypass.

Keep us informed.
