Hi there , my husband is currently waiting for his surgery for the same thing and he’s been told some people recover well and get back to some day to day activities after 1-2 weeks but it could take up to 6 weeks to be totally back to normal . I feel for you , having 2 young children will be hard during your recovery . Hopefully you have someone who could help you through it . My husband is awaiting his pre op this week. Good luck to you and a speedy recovery . X
