About 10 days. I have a desk job but my mental focus wasn't completely with me. I felt like I was in a trans for awhile. :)

My Dr. signed me off for 3 weeks. I probabally could have gone back after two, but appreciated the three. When I came back I was on soft foods and had no problems wityh mobility, so I think 3 is best.
