driving for work?

Ok so I'm a pizza delievery driver and I don't know when to go back to work. I'm still sore getting up and down, and for work I'd have to be getting up and down and out of the car every 5 min or so and lots of walking up 3-5 flights of stairs because there are a lot of apartments in the area. So is one week still way too soon? i'm thinking so...

I had to take my daughter to an appt 2 hours away 3 days post op and I was a hurtin' unit the next day. Could you work half days or something to ease back into it?

well it's just a lot of running around so i don't know. And I figure if I just allow myself just a few more days to heal up, in the long run it will be better...just in case I could accidently move something or tear something...
As far as working half-days, even then it would be crazy...I'd probably be working 5 hours and that's a lot of getting in and out of the car...

I went back to work after 6 days and I wish I had taken a few more days off. I work in a desk job so you may need a little more time off. If you are able to take more time, I would do it. Good luck to you!

You might want to take two weeks off. I believe you will get too tired going at the pace you've described.
