I took one week, but then had unforseen complications, like a reaction to the anethesia, dry heaved; and a latex allergy. Had no indication BEFORE surgery that my recovery would be so hard. I had always healed fast from any other kind of malady. In the end, I should have taken two weeks.
Everyone is different, but even if you know your body, this is major surgery and sometimes when you think you can do it, your body doesn't let you.
