Does anyone know how long from surgery date, before you can go back to work?  Trying to figure out all the off time I will need.

I've heard most people have about one month to six weeks off. i think it really depends on how physical your work is. I was back into the full swing of things by day six. I guess it depends how much time your doctors suggests and if you have had any complications. I was lucky and felt fantastic, plus my hubby only had one week off, so I had no choice lol. My mom told me she could help me the following week, but I ended up not needing her.

I work in a group home with mentally challenged adults and was initially told 2 weeks but that I could have 4 weeks off if I wanted.  After surgery Dr. Sampath decided on 6 weeks off for me.

I took 3 weeks off due to a final exam I have coming up, but I could have probably gone back this coming up Monday, which would have been 2 weeks. But I literally sit at a desk and pay bills
