When can I work after surgery?

Banks2015Member

I really want to restart my life and get back to my career but atm I don't know when my operation is going to be since I'm on a waiting list. I don't want to waste the prime years of my life and tbh I've been waiting very long for this op. Takedown is 8-12 weeks after the colectomy and so I'd like to work very soon after my last operation, so , based on the personal experiences of the various posters here, I'd like to know how soon I can possibly start working.

Clearly recovery should be my prime objective but I don't want to be sitting at home for months after my operation like a couch potato is necessary good for a persons psyche.
