I'm sure all people recover differently but my experience was, surgery on Wednesday and back to work on Monday. I do have a fairly easy job though because about 80% of my day is spent sitting at a desk :-). I will say that I wish I had've gone back a couple of days after my surgery, because when I did go back on Monday it definitely made me feel 100% better! I honestly think 2 days down time would've been enough for me. Hope this helps and good luck!

I took 2 weeks off. Felt pretty yucky for 4 days... day 5 felt like my old self, except I got tired easily for about a month. I could have gone back after a week, but I had lots of Vacation time so I took the full 2 weeks off. Good Luck to you!

I am hopefully having my surgery on April 29th, and will be taking a week off, and that is only because I work 3 12hr shifts, so the way my shifts work and my days off, it turns out to be one week. Best of luck!

I took a week off. I'll be off from April 5th (day of surgery) to the 12th. If I need to, I can also stay home and work for the rest of that week so I will probably have about 2 weeks off total.
