Surgery Delayed

My clip surgery was scheduled for May 4th and the doctor's office called yesterday to postpone it until May 11th. He has to be out of town now. I had wanted to do it in April, but they didn't have any openings. I am on a cancellation list. I have a very busy summer planned, and assuming I am going to need the full month to recover, it really messes with my life. I am tempted to wait until the end of August to do it now, or maybe even calling Mayo Clinic to see if I can have it done there sooner. Does a week more or less make much difference in the recovery process?

That depends on what you are planning to do with your summer. Easy slow activity is the way to go. I had a rupture so mine was more like a year recovery, but hearing from people that have had surgery with no complications, they do pretty well in their recovery. Ruthie

I am having the surgery at the Mayo Clinic on April 28th - it gives me two extra weeks of recovery time before the summer hits.
