Any Post Op suggested supplies??
Main Post:
Hi Girls! I’m having my hysterectomy surgery next Friday (9/20) due to severe Stage IV endometriosis. My anxiety and nerves are off the charts. I’m trying to make a lot of things to do while recovery to keep boredom from setting in (I.e. books to read, shows to binge, etc). However, does anyone have any suggestions on post op supplies you felt were helpful that I should invest in once home from the hospital? Anything like Tuck’s cooling pads, wet wipes, witch hazel spray etc? Surgery is laparoscopic but I’ll also have endo excision and a vaginal cuff. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!♥️

CPAP parts/supplies in Calgary
Main Post:
So being new to this CPAP world, are there places in Calgary where I can physically go and purchase parts/supplies without having to have a prescription or a specialist's referral?
Let's say I want to replace the hose on my unit or get a different strap for the head piece. Or a replacement tank.
Also, I'm currently using just a nose piece and would like to possibly get into a full mask that covers both my mouth and nose. Can one buy such a thing that is not brand specific to the CPAP machine I currently have?
Most importantly, I want to do this locally at a brick and mortar type of place, not online.

I hate to be that guy.... but anything local will be a total hose down. No pun or pun intended.

Philips dreamwear. It's the only way IMO. Yes they should be interchangeable - don't quote me though.
