Returning to work as soon as you can after mastectomy is good for your body and head
Ask your surgeon when you can use your arms without restriction, but I would return to work as soon as you can. First, you will recover faster. Second, it takes time to be ready for the second stage. Third, your morale will be much better. Good luck!
