Can you bring your own Hospital Gowns?

Thu, 01/19/2017 - 23:17
Is it possible to purchase your own hospital gowns before going to the hospital? Next month, I plan to go to the hospital to do an EEG test and that will require several days of laying the bed with an ill-fitting gown that doesn't cover my back (or backside). Does any company make gowns that fit better or something like a T-shirt that can be immediately un-snapped? Thank you, Scott

Just want to say thank you all for the advice. Before I made the trip I found a couple of these shirts.The main thing that they wanted was to be able to unbutton. These were comfortable wearing in a bedhttp://www.columbia.com/bonehead-ss-shirt-%7C-010-%7C-l-883834500225.html
