Waiting for surgery date



Recommended Posts

I just got the pre-approval from insurance (so thankful I get some help with the cost) and I hope I'll have a surgery date in the next 2 or 3 weeks. I am hoping for 2 weeks because I will be traveling in 6 weeks and I'd like to feel pretty good on that trip. I do have a few questions but I'm not sure if this is correct or if I should post them seperately:

1) how soon after surgery would you feel like taking a plane ride with 3 kids age 5 and under?

2) I work from home, full-time, sitting at a desk. Do I really need to take a week off or do you think a couple of days might be OK, giving myself plenty of breaks and naps?

Looking forward to more searches throughout the site and having this community for support!:frown:

I hope you get a date soon and welcome to lbt.

For the work I'd say since you work at home take a day or two, it depends on how you feel, you might want longer you might want less.

As for the plane ride with 3 kids under 5...probably at least a month out of surgery I would wait. But like I said....it's how you feel :frown:
