[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 362088, member: 1233"] I'm so sorry. PLEASE be VERY VERY careful. My mom went back to work too soon after a hysterectomy and had a LOT of problems. It took her body over a year to fully recover because she would NOT take off time from work. While she had sick leave, disability, etc.... she was a professor and didn't fully "get" how it worked. So she arranged to cancel classes or have them covered for two weeks and went back full time. She worked from home as much as she could, grading, etc... but that was about it. I was living out of state and didn't fully know what she was doing. Within 5 years of that she was in full burnout and unable to work at all due to stress making other issues much worse. ALL of her colleagues tried to get her to take more time off, she just refused. PLEASE encourage your husband to take any job he can because you have GOT to have some rest. If nothing else, make him lists of household chores and kid stuff and insist he do it. (((((hugs))))) [/QUOTE]
