I know it's different for everyone, just trying to get a vague idea. Thanks!

I went back two days. Director of HR, desk job.

Working beyond grief for a better life!

Day 11. I think that it should be 4 weeks from my experiences after going back in 11 days. The pain completely subsided at 4 weeks. I was also able to tolerate Vitamins better at 4 weeks.

My job is extremely physical running a mail machine on my feet 8 hours and carrying heavy loads. I was still very sore on my left side at 4 weeks so I took another week.

I took off for 10 days.

Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

I work for a school system and did it over spring break. Surgery on a Monday, went back to work the following Monday.

I had surgery on a Friday, took off the next week, and went back to work the Monday after. So, nine days (counting weekends). I was very lucky to have a smooth recovery, and I've been glad to be back at work (office job, so no heavy lifting). It's helping me to get into a regular routine.

My best to you!

I had surgery on Wednesday, came home Thursday, worked from home Friday, and was back at the office Monday. I was fine.

I had an easy recovery and I've got a desk job.

I had my surgery on Wednesday 8/3/16 and I went back Monday 8/8/16 . WAY too soon. But having a desk job I thought I would be ok. I am at my desk part of the day, but a big part of the day, I am also running back and forth between people in a manufacturing shop. I should have taken 2 weeks, easily.

At 66, one week, desk job, no lifting. Easy peasy.

Sleeved on 8/31 and going back 9/6. I've been very lucky as to no real pain or gas. Good luck to all !!!
