TTer's How long back to wk? Pain? Ins cov? Regrets?

2 Yr PP, planning on having upper & lower tummy tuck this Nov..How long did it take for you's to get back to work? my plastic surgeon says 6 wks, I think that's pretty long if you have a sedentary job. How painfull was it? Do they have to cut through alot of muscle? Are there any web sites out there that explains various TT proceedures. Did you's have to wear a binder? How long was your hospital stay? Did your Ins pay for it and what were their requirements? Approx how long did it take to get Ins approval? I have BC/BS Il. Does anyone have any regrets or words of wisdom. Thanks
