Is it laparoscopic? Loose comfy jammie pants or trackies. The top two incision sites are where a mid-rise waistband would be... so nothing firm that will cause you pain/discomfort. Pads at home in case you have a bit of post-op bleeding. Magazines, chocolate, movies :-) Relax and don't do too much until your body is ready. Hope your op goes really well and frees you from endo completely :-)

I appreciate it! I'm nervous, but hopeful.

Drink LOADS of water before and after. Keep hydrated its important

Wow, you'll be relaxing for a bit longer than I had to! Enjoy the forced relaxation as much as you can. I hope this operation gives you total freedom :-)

Thank you, Sparrow! I am having a full abdominal hysterectomy.
