I'm just curious to know how soon after surgery did you all go back to work. I have heard from some who think they went back too soon...... Would like to hear your responses.
Thanks!

29 y/o f w/76 degree curve.Surgery done on June 26th, A/P, rods, instumentaion, rib removal- now 18 degrees!!
At 11 weeks I went back for 4 hours/day for one month. I increased to 6 hours/day for another month at which time I was back full-time. I'm an admin and so I sit for a good part of the day and interact with people constantly throughout the day. After 3 months of lying around and not having a lot of interaction, I found going back to work to be pretty tiring initially. I was supplied with an electronic desk that raises and lowers to allow me to sit or stand as needed...a great invention!
