Alot of girls recommend the cooling gel pads. Might be worth a add to your list, they are meant to really help with the sun burn feeling afterwards. Wish I knew that before my first BA. xx

Ice packs, button up pjs, comfy clothes to go home in, nothing to right and a pair of shoes you can slip on such as flip flops :) if you are staying overnight then maybe things to keep you busy such as phone, mags maybe? :) xx

Dry shampoo or book in at the hairdressers few days post op, as hair washing yourself will be out of the question for a good week or so.
Making sure everything is in easy reach.
A bag of your favourite sweets or biscuits to take to hospital with you for after ga.

And ice packs, or bag of frozen peas. X

If you've not already got one, a cheap electric toothbrush. All that jiggling was hell, I ended up using a novelty dalek one! And possibly strepsils to help sooth coughing. Primark do a great cheap button down night shirt.

Definitely some flip flops.....you will not want to be having to bend over to put shoes on, and an electric toothbrush. Apart from that it sounds like you're sorted hun, very organised! I didn't use some of the stuff I took, such a throat sweets as the tube didn't irritate me at all! xxx
