    Half the stuff I took I never used! But I would deffo take slippers to walk from your room down to theatre in, a zip up or button up top as anything over the head will be too painful to put on after, your post surgery bras in a range of sizes (your nurse will pick for you), a phone charger in case you end up there all a neck pillow or pillow for the journey home. I took overnight stuff just in case and a book, make up wipes etc but never gotnround to using them. People said lip balm as their lips got dry from surgery but mine never did! Hope that helps x

    No problem, I took a load of m&s ones that were £25 each but the one the nurse decided to put on me were one of the asda twinpack ones (£15 for two, come in small medium or large) that I bought last minute and they’re sooo comfy, will probably just return most of the m&s ones!! Good luck with your op 🙂

    I was about to order the Asda ones then all of the sizes where out of stock they’ve only got XL left 🙁 hopefully they come back in stock before September then I’ll be fine! Thank you for your tips 🙂 xx
