If, in addition to your lack of expression and body language, you don't usually just volunteer information about how you feel, it might be good to say so. That way they can ask you direct questions and make sure you're okay instead of just assuming that you would tell them if you weren't.
If you have trouble locating pain (e.g. a person might know that some part of their leg hurts, but not be able to tell exactly which part of the leg), have a very high/low pain threshold, or have any difficulty with describing or rating pain, these might be good things to tell them about--that way, the medical staff could try to adjust how they assess any pain symptoms to get a more accurate understanding than they could otherwise.
That's all I can think of. I hope it all goes well (the letter and the day surgery)!
