May 28, 201214 yr Hi there... I had my surgery on April 16th and it happened to fall on my spring break. I went back to work the following Monday. I had some difficulty because I am a teacher and had a hard time so I took three days off that week. I also had some problems with acid and a low grade fever so that prevented me from feeling 100%. Good luck... remember you are having surgery so you need to give your body time to heal....

May 29, 201214 yr I had the hietal hernia repair as well as lapband. I thought I would e back to work on Monday when my surgery was on the Tuesday of the prior week. I tried to go back to work but instead ended up staying at home another week. The extra week of rest was needed.... Remember it is still a major surgery so be kind to your body and the healing process.
May 29, 201214 yr I was banded on the 22nd and not due to return to work until next Monday. I still have a significant amount if pain on my left side . I am hoping this is gone by then.
How soon did everyone return to work??
