soontobehealthyandthin 18 Posted March 7, 2013 So I was wondering. I was sleeved on 2/27 and am doing great. How long did everyone have to wait to drive. I had my first follow up today and staples were removed but I forgot to ask. Been off pain meds for 2 full days now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carstanger 346 Posted March 8, 2013 I could drive as long as I was off the pain meds and felt up to it. I drove after the first week. Hope that helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boatdays 18 Posted March 8, 2013 I had surgery on Monday, released on Thursday evening from hospital and drove on Friday. Never needed to take pain meds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
