Is it silly to ask your cosmetic surgeon for a doctor's note for school?

Asked By:Persistent467851 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada

I have a test a day after my rhinoplasty. It's online but I'm scared I won't be able to do it because I don't know how I'll react to the surgery. Is it silly to ask my surgeon for a note so I can do a late write of the test? I feel silly because it's a cosmetic surgery and was my decision. But it was the only available day and I already paid last summer. Thanks in advance guys!
