    I drove last night for the first time and I was 13 days post op. It was absolutely fine! When I had my check at 8 days post op, the nurse said I could drive when I felt up to it 🙂

    I had my op last Wednesday and drove to the metro centre yesterday which is about 20 miles and felt fine. Think it all depends on the individual and how your getting on with the pain. Legally it’s just the 24 hours after anaesthetic you can’t drive, the week or 2 week is just guidance as to how long to leave it. You’ll know in yourself if you can manage with the driving xxx
