Surgery on the 6th, what to expect that isn't usually talked about?

Surgery is coming up soon!

I've had a lapro surgery before, as well as top surgery, and I've never had any bad reaction. I actually woke up right after coming out of the OR and about 30 minutes after coming out of top surgery, I walked a few blocks down the road to get some ice cream. I healed pretty well, not much pain from either, nor really even fatigue

However, I just want to know if there's any unexpected things that people don't often talk about. Any items I should have on hand?

I'll also just be moved in to my new apartment and will most likely just be sitting around and unpacking for a week or two, as I'll be taking off work (it's a heavy lifting job, so I won't be able to do anything lol)

I'll be back in school about 2 weeks after my surgery, will mostly be riding the bus, but my campus is on a bit of a hill that I'll still have to walk up and down a bit.

Any advice / unexpected things?

Thank you all!
