That sounds like hard work! I think you should ask your doctor and make sure you tell him/her exactly what your job entails. I have a desk job. I had surgery on 9/13 (Friday) and came back to work on Tuesday. For that first week I only worked, I couldn't do anything else. My husband and kids had to help me at home. I think you are going to need more time. Like I said, I think you should ask your doctor and they will probably give you a doctor's note. I wish you the very best :)
