    Hey honey.

    I haven’t had my surgery yet, but I have read somewhere that bringing some straws to drink with is useful to bring with you, since you’re expected to drink after your BA before they let you leave to go home.

    I’ve also ready somewhere that a pillow is useful for the drive home to ease the seat belt away from your chest.

    May I ask why are you an overnight case?
    I thought would be done for overnight, but apparently there was no need for me to stay over.

    All the best in your recovery 😀 xxx

    Instant ice packs, maybe a dressing gown/robe.
    I’m doing my ‘what to pack list’ right now, too 🙂
    Apparently it’s good to bring your ID and some snacks.
    I’ve bought protein shakes to drink a few days before (obviously not on the day before surgery) and to drink after the operation.
    I hope this helps xxx
