My surgeon said 5-7 days in the hospital and one month recovery after that (read no gym). He also brought up the C word.

Yeah his Doc said 5 -7 days and the next day C-6 asked " what do I need to do to get out of here? " He gave him a short list one of which was walk around fine. He got out in 2 days but had yeah bout 3 weeks recovery. He got on the Exercise Bike too soon too so that didn't help

Just do what that Doc tells ya to

Yeah, I've been meaning to talk to Skip about that. What exactly happened when he rode the Lifecycle too soon?

My surgeon said no gym for a month. No for a week.

Sorry to hear that. On a side note my friend had a brain tumor removed last Thursday and they sent him home from the hospital on Sunday. He also said that he was awake for the entire surgery and was conversing with the surgeon.
