It's just every Dr is different to you just have to talk to yours any just decide Remember don't put yourself at any risk it's not worth it to end up back in hospital just to rush things

Yea the said you walk the first day with your catheter the driving I think they just don't want you to put pressure on you stomach this is major surgery and takes time to heal and if your on any pain meds you can't drive
