Got sleeved!! Made out very well!!! Pain is not very bad so far, and things seemed to go very smoothly! It seems I passed the first leak test, and will have final tests later this morning, before they let me go home (if all goes well!). Now if only I could get some sleep!! My roommate seems to be in a great deal of pain! Please don't think I'm being insensitive, but it's gotten to the point where the staff is starting to ignore him (NOT a bariatric patient).

I know exactly what you mean. My roommate had visitors and they talked all evening. The nurse found me with my pillow over my head. I was so tired but couldn't sleep because of the noise. During the night she was on that damn call bell every hour! Finally when I was able to go home the next day I was able to get some sleep!

That is the one thing I prayed for not to have a noisy roommate. ..thank goodness my prayers were really answered and I had a private room. ..but congrats brybro .

I will be 6 wks out on Friday. .and all I can say is that the noisy roommate good or bad is worth it ..I am down 49 lbs;

9 lbs pre op .40 post.

Not doing anything special just following Dr's orders. .

I live in northern NJ. Was sleeves yesterday. I love my surgeon!!! I am a nurse so I was very picky with what I wanted and how my procedure would go. I am extremely pleased with his care. I am some pain today. The gas pains are the worst. Must WALK after your surgery. It will be the best thing. Good luck!!!!
