I was wondering how long you waited after surgery to go swimming? I've reached out to my clinic for an answer and haven't heard back yet. The most energy exercise I'm doing at the moment is brisk walking.

My one month post appointment is this week but I would love to swim tomorrow. 

Thanks!

3 weeks. Long enough for the incisions to heal.

As soon as your incision is completely healed

Had my 4 week post op last week and was cleared to go swimming.

In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can.

I was cleared at 4 weeks, but not until then. You're almost there!
