Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 It depends on whether you have open or lap as to how you'll be feeling, but two weeks should give you a good head start. Check with your doctor on when he/she feels you can start doing things for yourself. Remember, in the very beginning you can't do anything...not even drive. > Did you feel you needed help after the surgery? Help with the kids, > help for yourself, help doing stuff around the house?
