I work at a power plant and have a pretty labor intensive job. Im wondering about returning to work. I can get two weeks off pretty easily, will that be enough? Im hoping so, cuz I'd like to just do that and without much question from anyone at work. Im trying to keep this pretty much to myself. soooo.... what do ya think?

Thanks!

I'm 4 weeks post op and I feel fine - like I did before surgery. 2 weeks is okay but it depends on what you do. Your port is sewed to your abdominal muscle so if you're using that a lot then 2 weeks may not be enough. You should talk to your surgeon

You should really talk to your doctor. But for i think 6 weeks i was not allowed to pick up anything more than 10 lbs. Every doctor has thier own set of rules so talk with them about it.
