MA-
When my husband was in for by-pass surgery I took my cs every day in a water
type bottle.
That way no questions were asked. I also took my small sprayer and after they
prepped him
for surgery and left the room I then sprayed his chest very well with the cs
and did not dry
it off so it could sit there a few. I sprayed him multiple times everyday
after surgery and there
were infections in other rooms but he fortunately did not get it. They may
give you a problem
about the gel.
I also made sure that I used a lot of cs on myself whenever I was taking care
of him. He is
doing great at this time and prayers were answered. We will keep you in our
prayers for
your husband. Watching your husband go thru something like this isn't easy.

My husband is at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio right now. He will have
open-heart surgery on Tuesday (aortic valve replacement and cardiac
myeomectomy). I'll be driving there on Monday to be there for the surgery, and
will remain in Cleveland while he's in the hospital. Of course, I'm worried
about the surgery itself, but I'm more worried about the opportunities for
infections while he's there. So I'm taking a gallon of CS -- is that enough?
I'd also like to take some CS gel (courtesy of Ode's kit). I don't know how the
hospital staff would feel about an unknown gel product on the incision itself,
so I may not get that done until we're out of there. Any advice from anyone
will be greatly appreciated.
