thanks for everyone's input!! this is great info

i am hoping i can work surgery in around the holidays, so i will not have to use too much of my pto... but it may be torture not to be able to eat pumpkin pie, and turkey. on the otherhand, perhaps it is perfect timing

thanks again!

I had to go to surgery center at 6 am Wednesday. Surgery was at 7 and I was back at hotel by 9:30 am. I flew home Saturday night and plan to go back to work tomorrow (Monday) for a full day. I am a bit sore and tired but think I will be fine. I work at a desk so no heavy lifting. I do move around the office quite a bit but I know the movement will be good for me. Doc had me taking four 10-minute walks a day right from the start anyway.

Banded this past Friday the 29th around 9:30am. Left hospital around 1:00 that day. Going back to work full time tomorrow (Monday) morning. Thankfully this has been better than expected.

I was banded on 7/28/11. My surgery was around noon. I left hospital by around 7:30pm. I had a hiatal hyernia taken care of. I think I'll be on sick leave for 1 week (I took sick leave day before surgery, so from 7/27 to 8/3). However, I can do some work at home, so that helps even things out, just have to remind myself not to pick up any heavy casefiles.
