SINGING 5 days post op sleeve to bypass revision....or nah?

Hey everyone!! I am scheduled for a revision from sleeve 2 bypass on december 27th 2016 . I am 4 years post op and have complications and going to get relief soon. I am supposed to perform with my church on New Years Eve! Just singing a song or two. I am wondering POST OP PAIN how well do you guys think I’ll be able to hold up?

I UNDERSTAND it is MAJOR surgery everyone heals different and the reason I am asking is because 11 days after my sleeve I rode from Connecticut to Ohio for my brothers wedding and was dancing and partying all night with my family for a few days. I was fine! I had minor pain but nothing major at all. Anyways thoughts opinions anyone? i heal pretty well.

I hate asking questions like this but whatever its random and that’s what the board is here for haha thanks!!!!

    I didn't have any pain (although some people do), but I was super tired. Not sure I could have done that four days after surgery, but then, everyone's different

    I had a bypass and had very low energy but was out weeding my flowerbeds two days after surgery!! No pain but did manage to rip my staple out from the left side which I think was the drainage hole anyway!!

    I had a bypass on a Wednesday. I was grocery shopping on Saturday and back to work on Monday. I never took pain medication after leaving the hospital. Barring complications, you should be fine.

    I had very little pain with my bypass and went back to work in 7 days ( a desk job) the worst was the gas and gas x really helped with that. however I was super tired. perhaps if you can have a stool or chair etc or at least not have to climb up on risers etc it might be better. best of luck and I know you will do fine.
