About a month to return to work. Probably 3 weeks to drive and a couple of months for the bike. But I spent 9 months before with angina while the docs argued about what was wrong, as I had a hiatus hernia as well. When they finally did a scan, things happened quite quickly.
Yours was planned surgery, then - which has different implications to emergency surgery. I could, in theory, be out and about in the car on Monday next week if it had been planned - but they're saying 4 weeks minimum for emergency work. Just been for a 5 minute walk. I'm fecking knackered!
After my bypass Ages until I drove. a car, at least months.. 2 weeks before I was riding my bike. I started retiring at the first twinge of the heart attack which preceded it.
**** them, it is your body, misuse it as you feel is appropriate. Really? My bypass was really quite transforming. I was on top of the world physically immediately afterwards. It took me a while to abuse my way back to normality but once I was up and about after the op it was lovely.
