Hey Suzy,
I did think of something I wanted to recommend. I haven't had this surgery as you know but I did have hemorrhoid surgery (which started the AF) and I wanted to suggest a supplement to you that helps to boost the immune system and prevent infections. It is olive leaf extract. It comes from the Olive tree but the leaves are used to make the extract. For some reason they don't give antibiotics after surgery prophalactically-they only give if you actually develop an active infection so this can help you not to get an infection.
Good luck tomorrow. I'll be thinking of you. Stock up on what you will need this week-wipes, fiber, stool softners, epsom salts, books, dvds, advil, etc.
God Bless and let us know how you are doing!
