If you have no complications 3 weeks should be a breeze driving school bus i went back and have to crank a canvas back manually and a few other physical thinks

i drive short distances for work usually 1hr tops each way then i have to get out of truck and do a few things to my trailer so i can dump the load so im constantly moving shifting steering cranking the canvas walking to back of trailer to ulock then relock it after load is dumped out and of course they recommend a lot of walking its not a easy journey but if you have a strong head yo can do this once you get thru the first few weeks it gets easier i would say the first month post-op is the toughest you will probably be on liquids and then move to mushy foods after 8 weeks move to solids

i had very little pain afterwards maybe a little discomfort i was up walking the day i had surgery everyone is different. Yes i did have a catheter but was not painful it comes out quick not to bad..As far as office work you should be fine i drive a tractor trailer and went back full duty at 3 weeks out and felt fine.
