I was expecting recovery from my surgery to be WAY more difficult but it turned out to be a breeze. Once I was able to sit comfortably, things became easier. For the first 2 weeks I was not allowed to drive or load or unload the dishwasher. For the first 4 weeks I was not allowed to carry anything heavier than a gallon of milk, take out the trash, or do laundry. For the past 6 weeks I was not supposed to work, or walk my dogs "or overdo it".
I went back to work full time after 3 weeks. I couldn't stand it. I did however get released by my doctor first, and there were rules in place. No stretching bending, lifting...etc. I had lots of help at the beginning, and now I am officially back to normal at work.
This was taken yesterday-me back at work...check out all that hair!
