Can I please get an idea on recovery times for keyhole lapband surgery? How long before I can drive and other day to day stuff. I am having a week off work.

I hope you have a quick one but what is keyhole surgery?

I am in Australia so we probably have different terminology. Keyhole surgery is less invasive done with a few small incisions. Not full open surgery if that makes sense?

I drove short distance following day. Started work day three. Went well, just a bit tired

I also took one week off from work.

I was out driving and running errands by day 3.....stopped by the office by day 5, and was back to work full time 7 days later.
