Rep Power: 0 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | One thing nobody remembers to stock up on pre-op are the meds. You are going to need some sort of liquid painkillers and plenty of chewable or soluble vitamins and minerals. Lots of us used the Tesco's childrens painkillers and doubled up the dose (much nicer than the stuff the hospital give you). |

Just concentrate on total relaxation and comfort. I never slept as much as I did my first week out of hospital! I did have the slimfast shakes and mum processed everything for me using a hand held blender. Tiny tiny amounts so keeping things fresh is a bind. |
