Today was 10 days out and that's when he cleared me to drive. I don't know how he knew that as he hasn't seen me since the day after the surgery but maybe he implanted a sensor or something. I actually stuck with the recommendation mostly because if I got stopped by the cops for some reason and was medically prohibited from driving I figured I'd be screwed (and I have ME to chauffeur me if needed) so I followed the rules.
Anyhow, just got back from driving to lunch and it feels good to drive again. I see the doc next Monday and we'll see about that 10 LB lifting restriction. Hey, I have stuff to do! I suppose I can start by cleaning up the shop a bit this weekend.

CURSES!!!! Went to the surgeon today for a follow-up and they say I have to wait 2 more weeks to do anything strenuous (like, pick up more than 10 lb.). I was hoping they'd cut me loose today but no dice. Evidently there's a decent possibility for developing a hernia at the laparoscopy sites and they would have to fix them and I'd be out of commission for another 6 weeks. So I'll wait though it'll be difficult.
Everything looks fine so it's just a matter of waiting (yawn.......)

Yes, please behave for another couple of weeks. My boss had abdominal surgery - felt great afterwards and promptly overdid it. Hernia surgery is going to be a much larger time setback than simply behaving and following orders.
Glad you are feeling well enough to want to misbehave though. Thats great!Of all the paths you take in life - make sure a few of them are dirt.
