Any drivers out there?

I drive for a living, I'm worried that I won't return to work within 2months. Has anyone that drives a tractor trailer or bus..etc... had the surgery? If so how long did it take to return to work for you?

What else do your job duties entail? Im in oil and gas, drive and operate equipment. I took 2 weeks off post sugrery and then went back to work with only driving duties. I was exempted from helping with job rig up for a month. But I had zero problems driving. My usualy equipemt is a 365 pete with a 49 ft pumping unit (106,000lbs) drving some really nasty lease roads. I would say if you're an OTR or just local haul and dont have to do any heavy unloading, you should be good
