Hi Samantha........welcome to the board. Congrats on your upcoming surgery. There is so much to learn here....here is my advice
~Click around the board and read up on old posts, there are so many topics covered extensively on here.
~Avoid the temptation to buy too many supplements......you don't know til after surgery which ones you'll drink. Buy a few, then go for more of what you like.
~Stock up on beverages, they are most important post-op for hydration (almost everyone loves the sugar free popsicles right after surgery).
~Remember no matter how badly you feel when you wake up, that you will feel better amazingly quick as each day goes.
~Walk, sip, rest, REPEAT after surgery.
~Keep posting!!
