Hello Everyone!
I have been working like crazy trying to get all my hours in and make some $$ before surgery Dec 22 so have not been visiting here as much. It doesn't take long to get behind on everyone's posts...wow

I was wondering if anyone could help answer a few questions for me...all input appreciated

My surgery is scheduled for Dec 22. I have been working with my manager and our LOA people in preparation (who've all been wonderful so far). My doctor has me going back to work only 3 weeks after surgery. I find that wonderfully optimistic and yet a bit worrisome

. Perhaps it is a bit too soon to be concerned about such things but the LOA committee told me that it is better for them and me if the LOA is for a longer period of time rather than not being long enough. Does anyone have an opinion or advice on this?! It is literally keeping me up nights thinking about it

Another question I have is for those of you out there who wear contact lenses/glasses. I have spoken to a few people who have not been able to wear their contact lenses after surgery (ever) due to a lack of moisture in the eyes. Have any of you experienced this? Both people I spoke with had also had the middle fossa like I am having.
I appreciate any of you taking the time to answer these questions. I wish I could just turn off my mind for a bit and not let all of this consume me

Luckily while at work I don't have time to think about it!
