Have I got everything I need for my week post-op, need advice please

[vanilla-cupcake]

Hi everyone, having my op on Saturday and went into town today to get new pj's etc, bought Superdrug kids chewable multi-vitamins and kids calcium tablets, I couldn't find any that was recommended to me by The Hospital Group, I tried everywhere...Boots, superdrug, Holland & Barretts etc but to no avail. I bought Slim Fast Milkshakes, marvel and Cadburys Highlights.

Is there anything else that I should get, was told I can take Calpol as my pain relief so always have loads of that (3 kids)

Have to pack my bags tomorrow as early flight Friday morning so need to pop into town in the morning if I have forgotten to get anything

thanks guys

Calpol 6+ is what I use - sugar free but I'm a bypasser, think sugar won't affect you.

Mags and Ipod , pen and diary or note pad to write down your thoughts
wipes , phone . Kate I hope everything goes well for you and you have a speedy recovery . And make sure you don't do to much when you get home rest as much as you can . Good luck and take care .
