Recycled 2,182 Posted September 7, 2013 If it's a normal recovery and if the project only involves talking and pointing and no physical, manual type work other than walking.......... then recover at work or recover at home......same difference. Take the pain meds and see what happens. Keep in mind, there is no way of knowing what your recovery will entail beforehand. Alot of "ifs" Plus, on meds you might be a little fuzzy.........I hope the project isn't an Air traffic Controller or Pharmacists or the like .....?! 1 FRED1977 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NMJG 1,266 Posted September 7, 2013 Good lord, I had to go back after a week and it almost killed me. However, I was able to get off pain meds after the hospital. Only used Tylenol after that. Good luck with that and remember your body is healing after major surgery. Be kind to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guga 0 Posted September 7, 2013 Thanks for your replies, of course I am assuming a favorable recovery without complications. I have a desk job so typos are the only risk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beach Lover 1,084 Posted September 7, 2013 I went home without the drain. They removed it right before I left so you might luck out and not have it. Take it easy and make sure you have your liquids at your side. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
