[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here, this is really helpful because my doc said I needed to take 4 weeks off of work and that seemed excessive to me. Glad to know recovery is not that bad. Mine will be laparoscopic but with 5 incisions instead of 3 so a little more recovery than regular surgery, but it it doesn’t seem like it will be that bad.[/quote] It’s major surgery—four weeks off is reasonable. Many people take more than that. Better to preemptively take a few weeks off and return to work early if you’re up to it. There are plentiful stories of people pushing too hard after this and other surgeries, which ultimately just delays recovery (similar to sports injuries: being patient is sometimes the hardest part). The recovery often doesn’t [i]feel[/i] difficult, but you really want everything to heal deeply and well the first time.[/quote]
