What's the pain like?

I've read a lot of "the first few days post op are rough" but I'm not sure what that means. I'm hoping to be sleeved in august and am really nervous about the pain when I wake up. Can anyone describe what their pain was like or if you had none?

    My surgery pain was very well controlled with medicine, and the main cause of my pain was from gas. I would say my first few days after surgery that I was uncomfortable, but not that I was in pain. However, everyone is different- we all had different post-op meds, and different levels of pain tolerance so this is an extremely subjective question.
