I will have surgery May 13th and plan to return to work after two weeks. Is this a realistic goal or should I expect to be out longer? I run a nursing home and sit at a desk all day. There wouldn't be any lifting.

I'm going back to my office job after 2 wks. I tried to get it down to 1 wk because that's what I took when I had my gall bladder out a few years ago and I was fine. But my surgeon said to give it at least 2 wks so that's what I'm doing.

I've heard of office job types going back after a week. Personally, I think I'd get bored if I had to wait more than 2.

Good luck!

I took 2 weeks off. even then I was very tired to work. i have a desk job. You need time for your body to heal.
