Gonna Get My Groove Back.....

[GetMyGrooveBack 21]

Hi All...

This is my 1st posting of this journey.. One week from Friday (5.24.13) is my day... Been reading a lot on this site, I love it! All the questions and answers, seem to set my mind somewhat at ease. I've spoken with a few folks on turnaround time back to work---I have my procedure on Friday and back to work on Tuesday... Hopefully, I will be ok since previous surgeries were quick turnaround time for me.. Nothing strenuous at desk on phones all day-- fingers crossed... Any recommendations? Any other surgeries that day?

That's a pretty aggressive return to work date. I thought the same thing since I have a desk job and work from home, but I felt pretty beat up and dehydrated for a few days. Are they prepared to let you have a few more days if you need it? Good luck with the surgery. Congrats on the beginning of your exciting journey!

Who do you think you are? Governor Christie?

I was back to work(I too work from home) the same day of surgery, but just an hour or so. But definitely 3-4 days later I was back full time. I had an easy recovery compared to so many I see here. Just be prepared to take some afternoons off that next week if you need to.

My surgeon, who flew to Mexico an had surgery by Dr Ortiz on Friday claims to have done an operation on Monday! Good for all you people who can. I enjoyed my couple days of rest!
