new job 2 weeks post surgery? Because that is what is going to happen and I'm kind of nervous :-/. Help, please tell me it'll be ok.

What kind of job will it be? I haven't had the procedure yet so I'm not able to answer but details might help. Is it a desk job or will you be standing all day?

As long as your job isn't lifting or anything too physical you should be fine. 2 weeks post-op you shouldn't be in Water or lifting but everything else you should be fine to do.

I found standing for a long time made me hurt. Also, 2 weeks out I was still pretty tired. I don't think I could have handled work. I hope it's a desk job. Everyone is different though! Good luck. :-)

For the most part I'll be at a desk...and maybe a little walking to a few other offices, not too far. I have to drop my baby at daycare though (maybe I won't be able to pick her up physically?) and my kindergartner is fine...

It's still a totally new job though so I'm a bit worried. I guess I can see right after how I feel, if I need a few days to start (like start later) I hope it's not a big problem...not the best way to start a new job but it's how everything worked out I guess.

My Dr will not let me lift more than ten pounds until after forty days.
