After operation: Only after the operation will you be given the answers. Depending on the surg done, extent, and tissue removed, and difficulty of the removal==these all will be a factor in the answer to your questions. And until the operation is done, answers are variable.

Depends: If your doctor does the surgery laparoscopically (through 3 to 4 small incisions), you can likely be back to work in 10 to 14 days. If you have a large incision, give yourself 4 to 6 weeks. Hope this helps.
