I had open surgery I work at a desk job and totally plan on a full 6 weeks, 8 weeks if I can get it approved. I am sore beyond belief and I still have staples that need to be removed next tuesday. My incision is from about 2 inches below my breastline where the bra rests to about 2 inches below the belly button.
