Reasonable time off?



Recommended Posts

If I have my druthers, I'd get the surgery on Dec 9th, 2 days after I'm out of finals. I return to school on Jan 3rd, and was wondering if you think that's adequate time to heal, granted it's an uncomplicated procedure (VSG).

It's nursing school, so pretty stressful.

What do you think? :lol0:

That should be fine. My surgeon says 3 weeks, but lots of people seem to go back to non physical jobs after 2 weeks.

That should be fine. I had mine on Aug. 9 and am back to school Tuesday (31st). The only thing I can think of is that it might be harder to stick to liquids during the holidays! :lol0:
