Hi i have surgery in a week and am really worried and nervous for how recovery will be. Im in a fulltime college program that will have a lot of physical components. Would be able to even carry a backpack say 4 days post op? (With minimal stuff inside).. will i be able to sit for 6 hours a day in lecture? Im super stressed! This is the worst timing ever

Im starting a pre-apprentice arborist program soon and im going to have surgery that will highly limit any upper body strain for 4-6 weeks… my surgery will occur in week 2 of the program.. so ill go into week 3 while in recovery. Should i be nervous? Does the physical portion of this program start right away??
