I have no personal experience with this, but I'll share a friend's as a cautionary tale on what NOT to do. She started walking and running before she was cleared following a partial hysterectomy. Several months later, she experienced a prolapsed bowel. She had to have a second surgery and a second long recovery. So, the best advice I can offer is tone patient. Follow your doctor's orders with respect to physical activity. The recovery process will eventually end. Good luck!
