I had my surgery on 10/30 and was back to work on 11/5. I've got a desk job.

It took me two weeks to go back to work, then about another two weeks to have more energy...I would go to work and be fine, but be wiped in the evenings. After four weeks, my energy level was incredibly high!

All depends on your job. Lady in my office was back to work in 2 weeks (desk job), but i was told 6 weeks because my job in very physical.
