Hello fellow Crohnies! I’m having a third bowel reaction surgery next week. I’ve done this twice before but it’s been about 7 years.

I’ve been asked to make a list of anything I might want or need at home to be comfortable for a few weeks following my surgery. I can’t remember what I needed last time to be comfortable. I will have someone at home helping me.

What items helped you at home post resection?

What I have so far:
- low residue foods
- thermometer
- Neosporin
- alcohol swabs for nausea
- heating pad
- long cord for my phone charger
- edibles

Thanks in advance!
