IRS stipulates that travel for medical professionals only can be deducted along with the patient's travel expenses. I would imagine that it's a grey area if you were ordered by the surgeon to have assistance with your travel but it would be a really good idea to document that order.
Hotel expenses were deductible to $50/night. Pretty much the only thing that's really questionable from IRS's standpoint is OTCs and supplements.
