If all goes well during surgery how much time should I expect to take off work

I had my surgery Thursday the 19th and requested Monday and Tues off just in case, but will be ready to go back Monday.

I took off 10 days and that was plenty for me.

I worked from home the next day. Sitting at a computer isnt too hard. I'm a programmer.

recovery time is very individualized. I was off for three days but worked from home for the remainder of that week and the following week. I was very fortunate to have an understanding manager who allowed me to work remotely. After two weeks out of the office, I was fine and able to go back no problem.

It depends on how your react to the anaesthetic as well as your tolerance to the pain and gas post op. I always have a fuzzy brain for about a week after a general. It really is a personal thing but give yourself plenty of time and don't rush back.

I had surgery on Thursday and I plan to return to work on Monday. I am uncomfortable sitting upright. Standing or lying is better. I sit at a desk all day so I am not sure how I will get thru the day.

I really don't want to take more time off so I hope I feel better by Monday morning.

I am a private nurse and take full care of a handicapped adult and I have taken 1 week off. I was banded Tuesday and will go back to work next Wednesday. But the doctor has made it clear that I am not to lift more than 10 pounds and to remember to take in the proper fluids. It just depends on the person and the job.
