I think is the right forum for my question

Its been a week since I completed treatment and I am strongly considering going back to work in another week. I work in an office environment and manage 12 employees and if need be I can work from home or leave early. The doctors tell me I can return whenever I feel strong enough, so far I been able to do short rides (bicycles) and workouts at the gym. Before moving forward I am interested in knowing what others have experience when returning to their jobs and lessons learn.

I felt ready about a month out but I work for the choos board and that put me on the cusp of summer vacation! I probably would have been tired but, could have done it. If you feel up to it... Go for it... However - try not to get stressed! good luck!
