Is there an approximate time we can drive post op?

From what I recall, I could drive as soon as I was off my narcotics so like 4 or 5 days in. But Redy is on it and I'm sure she'll let ya know!

I think you are right about that Brenda. I know drugs have to out of your system. I'm going to try after my tube is out.

So asked my doctor today and was told no drugs no problems driving! Got back driving today!

I would say whenever you feel ready. I was driving 3 days post-op.
