(2,964 posts)34. Best of luck!
when I had mine, some odd bits of useful advice:
1) stock up on easy-to-prepare foods and/or meal-replacement shakes beforehand, so you can just laze about if you're doped up on pain-killers.
I also made a habit of writing down whenever I took a painkiller, so I'd take a Tylenol for any breakthrough pain if it was too early for my next dose. (Fortunately, I think that only happened once, but I didn't have to stress about trying to remember if I could take another one yet.)
2) Also stock up on laxatives/stool softeners, since the anesthesia can slow things down for a few days.
