...was it boiling or freezing? Wonder what to pack - I'm a naturally cold person and due to the nature of my surgery some of my normal clothing won't be suitable.

I'm also packing some noise cancelling headphones so I can sleep as I'm very sensitive to noise.

Anything else I'll need? I take it you need your own shampoo, shower gel and towel? No one has really told me what to bring it re personal items.

Very hot generally .
need flip flops or slippers
definitely no towels . You would have nowhere to hang them

I've always hung mine at the end of the bed or the arm of the chair.

My advice is to take nothing you'd be sad to lose. Nothing of any value. Your spare watch/spectacles, not your best ones, and no jewellery.
Best of luck!
