Hi, Lynn and welcome to the forum.
As someone already mentioned, we all recover at different rates and hit the "milestones" at different times.
I didn't start driving until 6 weeks post op. I probably could have started sooner, but I had the luxury of a chauffeur

Actually my mom was living with me and my kids after my surgery for 6 weeks, so I was able to rely on her. If she wouldn't have been driving all of us around, I'd have been forced to drive a lot sooner. You know how it is, kids without a parent to taxi them around aren't happy campers!

The most important thing when you do return to driving is to start slow. Drive around the block a few times, during the day, in light or no traffic, etc., - and then when you feel comfortable with that, move on to busy roads with more cars and faster speeds, etc.
Good luck with your surgery,
