Update: Surgery was 11/21, 4 days of significant pain,after that i decided to go down to target to do some shopping and i got a call from my surgeon to see how i was doing. her mind was blown that i had recovered well enough to be out shopping, but didnt disapprove when i told her i had used peptides to aid my recovery. Did my post op on 12/1 and she said i was the fastest recovery shes seen yet, now im not 100% yet but solid 80+% and back to work in 13 days flat. i was told wishful thinking to be back to work in 14 days, and was expected to have a 6 week recovery. another week or two and i should be 100% but i will likely observe that 6 week window before i get my ass back into the gym.
Side note: when your surgeon is telling you about side effects before a surgery and she says "if you cant pee 8-9 hours after your surgery..." dont interrupt and tell her "yeah no problem ill just jam a Q tip in there and clear it right out". because apparently this karma got me back to the ER and i had to endure a catheter for several days after. and you never wanna be awake when they insert one of those. but the look on her face when i suggested the Q tip.... id probably do it again if in the same situation
