I was sleeved on March 25th. My first 4 days were rough like that. It does get better! I hardly have any pain and I have been meeting my goals.

I am 3 weeks out and some days are better than others with the gas and the incision pain, the one where the stomach comes out still gets me sometimes!! Pain meds, gas x, and prevacid are your friends right now, use them! Good luck!

How long did it take to drive?

It gets better! I am 11 days out and feel good. No real soreness at all. Went shopping for several hours this morning. You're doing great :)

I was sleeved on March 19. I felt better when I first came home than now. Nausea and vomitting the last 4 days. No appetite. Doctor put me on chewable prevacid.

They can give you something for the nausea. Take the meds offered to you, they are worth it. Each day gets better and better, have faith. As for the driving, you can drive when you are no longer on narcotic pain meds and are able to look over your shoulder (to check your blind spot) without pain. I took about a week or week and a half. Others go back to driving sooner. All depends on your meds and how you feel.

Hang in there! You will feel great soon!

I was sleeved on the 20th and was able to stop pain meds on the 27th and I drove for the first time today. I honestly didn't notice a real decrease in pain/discomfort until yesterday which was 9 days out. I did shop today for a few hours with my family. I also had an allergic reaction to the skin glue that was used during surgery which made my discomfort higher (intense burning/itching). Hang in there! You'll start to feel better soon!

I got sleeved on the 28th as well and I am defiantly struggling to get my liquids and Protein in. Had 2 nights of vomiting and dry heaving and I don't want to relive that..
