Thanks so much for your response. My surgeon also has a 2-4 week range - theoretically, I guess - but now they are adamant that everyone gets 3 weeks. It's "protocol". Anyway, I stood my ground and got 1 more week, which gives me 4 weeks total, so I guess I count that as a win. I'm still nervous about going back to work but I'll just have to do the best I can and hope my body is ready.
