No one will be able to predict when YOU will be able to return to work as there are way to many variables but my experience was that I was able to start back appx 2 months post Tx and only PT at first gradually building up to full time. I was fortunate in that I didn't have anyone putting pressure on me returning other than myself of course. You will soon learn that we can all react differently to the same Tx so you may bounce back sooner or later than what my experience was but do not push yourself as your body will be in a healing mode for at least the first year post Tx and perhaps longer.

To improve your Tx experience and recovery please consume at least 2500 calories and 48ozs of water each and every day during and post Tx. In fact start now fattening yourself up like a turkey BF T Day whether or not you think you need it!
