I have top surgery in 3 days and I’m starting to get pretty nervous that I’m missing something or not prepared enough? Any tips/reminders? Or anything anyone wishes they knew before surgery?

If they don’t give you one when you wake up, ask for a chest binder (giant Velcro cloth). Mine did most of the heavy lifting and helps with pain immensely
