So just curious how much time off work you guys took? I have two jobs. A desk job which I plan in taking a week and then maybe half days the next week. My second job is a cashier at walmart. I definitely need more time off there. Any suggestions from those who have already been through it? My surgery is on jan 21.

I have a desk job (I work in customer services) and I took 3 weeks off. To be honest I probably could have gone back to work after 2 weeks, but I was glad I had the extra week. I had problems with my sleeping patterns afterwards and was quite tired a lot of the time, so it was a luxury to be able to nap during the day if I wanted. Hope all goes great for you :-)

I went back after 4 days and had no problems. I have a desk job so it was easy on me. I have a very lenient boss.
