I took two weeks off and it was plenty. I am a retail manager. I'm just not lifting anything. I think it depends on the job.

Had surgery on Wed. and returned to work on Monday. Of course I'm a social worker and do in home therapy so not physically demanding. My husband had his on a Tues. and returned to work the following Tuesday. Everyone is different,you won't know until then.

Good Luck

Thanks I requested a week I'm a hairstylist do hope that's enough

I had surgery Tuesday and I am returning to the office Monday but we have a breast cancer walk and a zoo Halloween event sat and Sunday so really it's tomorrow I am going back

I don't work (thank God), but I think I could've gone back to work after a week if I was at a sitting job, maybe 2 weeks for a walk-alot-job (as in a nurse, teacher, etc).

Good luck!

I was banded on a Friday and went back to work on the following Monday. I sit at a desk though. Besides needing to get up to walk around for 5 minutes every hour I was fine.

i went back on the 12th day,i stand and walk a lot at work and i found myself tiring very easily...so every hour,i would try to sit for a few min,and that helped a lot!
