How soon is too soon to drive after GB

[Sylvia 18]

I was told to wait 24 hours after taking my pain meds.

I took 2 weeks off work because i have it off anyway for the holidays. I haven't returned yet, but I made sure all my lessons are really mellow when I return. (Teacher)

Funny thing for me, the first time I drove was to go to the surgeon because I thought my incision was infected. I was one week out and felt pretty good, so skipped the pain meds and drove. But as I lay in the exam room and he was re opening my incision, I thought not a good day to give those meds up! Lol!
