After Laparoscopic Gb Surgery

If you have a very physical job how long should you take off of work?

My doctor gave me two weeks off. His office said that two weeks was the standard for laproscopic gallbladder surgery. I have a desk job and I needed every bit of that time off. When I went back to work, I still had some soreness just from moving around, and was tired. I took half of a pain pill (vicodin) each day that first week when I went back to work. If you have a physical job, I think you should take four weeks off.
