OhioMary 16 Posted September 16, 2017 So I have been interviewing with a company and if all goes well next Friday, the company will invite me onsite for an interview. I'm 11 days out from surgery. At this point, I don't think I'll interview onsite prior to surgery. My question is how soon after surgery do you think I'll be 'good enough' meaning have energy and not look like someone beat me up, to sit through a 3 hour interview? 2 weeks? 3 weeks? I can't push it out too long. Help!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beacan 2 Posted October 21, 2017 Oops . I was wrong. I’m one month post op and still feel sick too often to work.. so I’m not going yet. I will be one month post op next Friday and haven't returned to work, my follow up with the doctor is this Wednesday some days I feel ok and other days I don't. What does your doctor say about returning to work?5'5 VSG 9/29/17HW 265SW 258CW 234GW 170 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But regardless I definitely have very bad days. So I’m not ready for work... I think after major surgery it’s okay to take time off , if we have the means to do so.
