Wow, Karen, you will be returning to work around the same time I do, and your surgery was 4 weeks after mine.  That is remarkable.  Congratulations!

Thanks to everyone for all the support. 

Liz, I also live in the country but I have an easy drive into town.  I'll let you know if I am actually able to return to work as planned.  Who knows at this point???? 

Lisa, are your headaches improving?  I've had some head pains but no ongoing headaches.

Are you going to be able to make it back to work when you planned? Hope everything is well.

I start back to work full-time  on Tuesday after taking off the month of August.  Actually I caught up on paperwork and returning work emails and phone calls this past week.  I walk/hike two times a day and do all the vestibular exercises daily.  But, I mainly sit at my job.  It'd be a different story if my job was physical in any way.

Wow Karen, I am impressed that you are going back to work on the same day that I am.  I've been off since June 28th and my surgery was on July 3rd.

Keep us posted on how it's going!

Thanks Liz,  but if I was in your profession with your job, I wouldn't be able to return to work this soon.
