When could you ride?

How long after your surgery could you ride your motorcycle?

My surgery is May 22nd & I have a charity ride on June 7th.

I don't know how Nobodys girl rode the day of her surgery. I could barely walk, there was no way I could ride not even on the back, This is my 5th day post op and I still have a good amount of pain. I guess if you have a light bike you might be able to do it, mine weighs about 700 lbs. but You don't want to take a chance in slipping your band then you would have to go back in for surgery to get it fixed.

I rode about two weeks after my surgery.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
